• 1 1/2 teaspoons pure ancho chile powder
• 1 1/2 teaspoons light brown sugar

• 24 jumbo shrimp, shelled and deveined
• 2 tablespoons canola oil
• 3 yellow heirloom tomatoes, 1 1/2 pounds sliced 1/4 inch thick

1. In a blender, puree the 1/3 cup of basil leaves with the olive oil until smooth. Season the oil with salt and black pepper.
2. Light a grill or preheat a grill pan. In a small bowl, mix the sweet smoked paprika with the pure ancho chile powder, light brown sugar, cumin, coriander, cayenne pepper, 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper. Brush the shrimp with the canola oil and season all over with the spice mixture.
