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.
