Recipe for Shrimp Satay

Serves 4
1 pound shrimp, shelled
1 cup coconut milk
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon Japanese soy sauce
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/8 teaspoon ground ginger

In a shallow bowl combine all of the ingredients except the shrimp. Marinate the shrimp in this sauce at room temperature for 30 minutes, turning the shrimp frequently. Remove the shrimp from the marinade and thread them, head to tail, onto skewers, three or four shrimp to each skewer. Broil the shrimp over medium coals until done, about two minutes on each side. Baste the shrimp liberally with the remaining marinade during the broiling process. Serve at once.
