Bora Bora Bacon-Wrapped Shrimp With Passion Fruit Mustard

"Star chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten follows a morning of Jet-skiing on a turquoise lagoon with an exuberant afternoon of creating recipes for his new Bora Bora restaurant. He planned to punch up his shrimp with a simple mustard sauce, but the spectacular passion fruits on Bora Bora gave his sauce a tangy kick. Store-bought passion fruit juice also works well if you can't make it to the island to pick the fruits."

  • Add the honey and green chile and bring to a simmer, remove from the heat and let stand for 15 minutes.
  • Strain the honey and stir in 1 teaspoon of the water.
  • In a bowl, blend the dry mustard with the remaining 2 teaspoons of water; let stand for 5 minutes.
  • Stir in the Dijon mustard.
  • Strain the reduced passion fruit juice into the mustard and season with salt.
  • Fire your grill and wrap each shrimp in a slice of bacon.
  • Grill the shrimp over moderately high heat, turning a few times, until the bacon is lightly charred and the shrimp are cooked throughout, about 4 minutes.
