Ginger Hoisin Shrimp

Made ginger hoisin shrimp tonight and Vietnamese turkey burgers. Here's a link to the shrimp recipe: http://www.splendidtable.org/recipes/ginger-hoisin-summer-shrimp
The recipe said to cook the shrimp with the shell on, claiming it makes them juicier, I am not going to do that next time. Too much of a mess while eating and everything else you touch on the table gets messy.
For the turkey burgers I used the same marinade as the shrimp recipe plus some fish sauce and diced lemongrass. Mixed the marinade into the ground turkey and formed little sliders that we ate inside of lettuce wraps with pickled cucumbers.

I like to grill them with the shell on myself. I'm a messy eater so the little extra mess due to the shells is right up my alley. Sorry I missed this when you first posted it. Great looking grub sister and thanks for sharing the link. Great jobShesGotEggs said:The recipe said to cook the shrimp with the shell on,

The greatest barrier against all wisdom, the stronghold against knowledge itself, is the single thought, in ones mind, that they already have it all figured out. -
They were definitely fresh!! Thanks all for the nice comments.

Looks an sound awesome! I'm with you on the shrimp shells. All the pro chefs keep them on, go figure. I think it's just pomp and circumstance, so to speak.

Another great post.

Nice cook. I like removing the shells before cooking. Rather wrestle with them in the kitchen than at the dinner table.Cooking on an XL and Medium in Bethesda, MD.

Those look awesome. Thanks for sharing!
