- Prepare a medium-warm barbecue fire. Scrap then oil the grill rack or possibly coat with nonstick vegetable spray. If using bamboo skewers, soak them at least 30 min in cool water.
- In a small dish combine the herbs and spices. Combine the oil and garlic.
- Brush the shrimp with the flavored oil, then sprinkle with the spice mix to coat lightly. Let the shrimp stand 30 min at room temperature.
- Thread the shrimp on metal or possibly soaked bamboo skewers. Grill, turning once or possibly twice, 3 to 5 min, till hard and just cooked through.
- Serve the shrimp with lemon wedges.
- Makes 8 appetizers or possibly 4 entrees.
- NOTES : The "jerked" meats and poultry of Jamaica are "warm stuff" to trendy palates. Jumbo shrimp, with its meaty texture, is a nontraditional but definitely delicious variation on the theme. A mix of warm and sweet herbs and spices, the jerk seasoning can be either a liquid marinade or possibly, as is used here, a rub. I especially like the addition of curry pwdr to the already complex blend of herbs and spices. Any unused spice mix can be stored, tightly covered, in a cold place for a couple of months.
