1 pound large shrimp (about 36), peeled and deveined
3 tablespoons canola oil
Salt and freshly ground pepper
12 leaves green curly leaf lettuce
Serrano-Mint Sauce, recipe follows

Directions
Preheat the grill to medium-high. In a large bowl,
toss shrimp in oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill the shrimp for 1 to 2

minutes on each side or until just cooked through. Be careful not to overcook the
shrimp, or they will be tough and rubbery. Remove from the grill.

with a little chili oil, if desired. Sprinkle with a few cilantro leaves. Roll up
the lettuce leaves, and eat immediately.
