For the shrimp:

  • 1 ½ tablespoons tequila
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon lime zest
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
  • ½ tablespoon orange zest
  • 3 tablespoons fresh orange juice

For the miso sauce:

  • 1 ½ tablespoons honey
  • 1 ½ tablespoons white wine vinegar
  • 1 ½ tablespoons fresh lime juice
  • ½ teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 ½ tablespoons miso paste
  • 3 teaspoons dark sesame oil

For the bowl:

  • ¼ cup jicama cut into thin strips
  • 1 cup shelled edamame
  • 1 ounce of Udon noodles
  • 4 wonton wrappers cut into strips
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil divided
  • 1 small avocado diced
  • salt & pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Marinate the shrimp. Combine tequila through orange juice in a small bowl, whisking together. Place shrimp in a small ziplock bag and pour in marinade. Place in refrigerator and marinate for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the grill. While the shrimp is marinating, preheat grill to medium heat (about 350 degrees)
  • Cook the noodles. While the shrimp is marinating, prepare noodles according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
  • Make the miso sauce. To prepare the miso sauce, mix all ingredients but sesame oil in a small bowl until blended. Add sesame oil and whisk until combined.
  • Cook the wonton strips. Heat 2 tablespoon olive oil in a medium saucepan. Drop as many wonton strips as will fit into the pan; cook for about 20 seconds until strips begin to brown. Remove from oil with thongs and place on a plate lined with a paper towel to drain. Repeat with remaining wonton strips.
  • Toss the noodles. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a medium sauté pan over medium heat. Add noodles and miso sauce. Using tongs to mix, sauté for 2 minutes. Keep warm.
  • Cook the shrimp. Remove the shrimp from the refrigerator and skewer, discarding any excess marinade. Place skewers on the preheated grill. Grill 3 minutes per side.
  • Prepare the bowl. Divide noodles between two bowls, top with shrimp and remaining ingredients. Can be served hot or cold.
