Grilled Shrimp with Fiery Lemongrass-Chile SambalHans Gissinger

To read of my travels, you might get the impression that for most of the last three years, I've done nothing but prowl night markets and food stalls. True, a lot of great grilling takes place at these markets, but you can also find some pretty amazing barbecue at luxury resorts. One such place is Amandari, a hotel built right into a rice paddy near the artist town of Ubud, Bali. There, a team of chefs makes Balinese grilled chicken, whole grilled fish with makrut lime leaves, and this grilled shrimp with fiery lemongrass sambal.
