INSTRUCTIONS

For Preserved Lemon Yogurt

  1. Shred cucumber on a box grater and season with 1 tsp salt. Set aside for 15 minutes.
  2. Place in the salted cucumber the center of a clean kitchen towel. Gather up the corners of the towel and twist into a ball, to wring out all the water.
  3. In a medium bowl, mix cucumber with yogurt, zest, and juice of 1 lemon, 1 clove garlic, parsley, and salt and pepper to taste. Sauce should taste salty and lemony, like preserved lemons.
  4. Set aside in fridge for 30 minutes.

For Shrimp

  1. If using frozen shrimp, thaw overnight in the refrigerator.
  2. Drain of liquid and dry on a paper towel.
  3. In a medium bowl, toss together shrimp, harissa, 1/2 lemon zest and juice, 1 clove garlic minced, olive oil. Set aside 20 minutes in fridge to marinate. Season with salt and pepper.
  4. To cook on the grill, use a grill basket, or thread raw shrimp onto soaked wooden skewers.
  5. Preheat BBQ to 375°F and oil the grill or basket. Grill shrimp 1.5- 2 minutes per side, until just pink and firm.
  6. Remove from skewers if using and serve immediately.

To Assemble

  1. Toast Bocata Ronda rolls on the top rack of the BBQ, or under broiler if desired.
  2. On the bottom bun spread 1 tbsp. preserved lemon yogurt. Divide lettuce among the 4 portions forming a cup on the bottom bun.
  3. Layer in shrimp (5-6 per sandwich), sliced roasted red peppers and red onion.
  4. Spread remaining yogurt on top bun and place on top of burger.
