2 shallots 1 piece of ginger chopped ( 3 in ) 4 cloves garlic 3/4 c soy sauce 1/2 c lime juice 2 T sugar 1/4 cup green onions 1/4 cup olive oil 1-2 Jalepeno peppers black pepper to taste 1 lb large shrimp OR 1.5 lbs chicken thighs Put shallots, ginger, garlic, soy sauce, lime juice, sugar, Jalepeno and green onions in a blender and pulse. Drizzle in oil and blend smooth. Put marniade in a jar with a tight lid and place in the fridge for 2 - 5 hours. Prepare shrimp by slicing open just the back leaving the tails and shells on and remove the vein. If using chicken, marinate for 2 hours before grilling. If BBQ-ing shrimp, shake the marinade as it will have seperated and dump everything into a ziptop bag. Start a hot fire and grill the shrimp for 90 seconds per side. If using chicken cook on the hot side for 4 min per side and then 10-15 minutes depending on thickness or until juices run clear. Serve with lime wedges and beer.
