Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Place a small saucepan over medium heat, pour in water, and add sugar. Cook over low heat until the sugar dissolves. Pour 1 cup of sugar syrup into a small bowl.

    Add the red pepper, jalapeno pepper, garlic, and cilantro to the remaining syrup and simmer over medium heat for 30 minutes, until the mixture thickens and becomes jam-like.
  2. Preheat the grill.

    Meanwhile, toss the shrimp in a bowl with half the olive oil, the juice of 1 lime, cayenne pepper, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Place them on a hot grill and cook on each side until cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes.
