Thai Grilled Shrimp with Black Pepper Sauce

This recipe is a powerhouse of Thai flavors! You’ll love how the smoky, grilled shrimp pairs so well with Phuket-Style Black Pepper Sauce that comes easily together in one pot. While I’ve adapted the grilled shrimp to make it simpler for a weeknight meal, I’ve kept the Phuket-Style Black Pepper Sauce as-is, because that’s where the recipe really shines.

I made this recipe in 30 minutes even without a kitchen! I used our BBQ grill for the shrimp and a little camping stove for the sauce.

Ingredients:
For the Pickled Cucumber
  • 2 tablespoons very hot water
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea or kosher salt
  • 1 tablespoon sugar

  • 2 tablespoons neutral cooking oil (like canola)
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 1 tablespoon peeled, minced fresh ginger

  • 2 cups unsweetened coconut milk
  • 1 cup hoisin sauce
  • 1/4 cup rice vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons fish sauce
  • juice of 1 lime
