INSTRUCTIONS
Peel and devein the shrimp and set them aside. In a medium saucepan over high temperature, heat the water, wine, garlic, thyme, and lemon halves just to a boil. Add the shrimp and cook until they turn pink, about 3 minutes. Remove the saucepan from the heat and set it aside to allow the shrimp to cool down in the liquid. Place the saucepan in the refrigerator to chill the shrimp until ready to use. For the Smoked Onion Aioli, heat the olive oil until very hot in a saute pan. Add the smoked onion and saute for 2 minutes. In a food processor, coarsely chop the sauteed onion and the garlic. Add the vinegar and egg yolks and mix. With the motor running, slowly add the vegetable oil to blend thoroughly. Add the thyme and cayenne sauce and process until blended. Season with salt and pepper. Serve the Chilled Shrimp with a dollop of Smoked Onion Aioli on the side. Note: If you don't own a smoker, smoke the onion on your barbecue over very low coals mixed with wood chips for about 1 hour.
