This recipe can be made with either chicken or shrimp, and is to be served with Finadene sauce, recipe included.

1 lb. shrimp, boiled and cleaned, tail removed
1 sm. onion, chopped very fine
2 sm. red peppers, chopped (Guam peppers are fiery hot, so use similar to replicate taste)
3 tbsp. lemon juice
1 c. grated coconut

Chop boiled shrimp into small pieces. Add other ingredients, increasing lemon juice and salt to taste if needed. Serve well chilled on lettuce or fresh tortilla. Serves 4.

If using chicken, broil the chicken first until just cooked. Increase lemon juice to 1/2 cup and salt to 1 tablespoon. Add chopped peppers to taste. Chill for at least an hour.

FINADENE SAUCE:

10 to 12 med. hot peppers (can use Jalapeno peppers)
1/3 c. soy sauce
1/2 c. lemon juice
1/2 c. chopped onions

Mash hot peppers to obtain the hot taste. Depending on the "hotness" desired, mash all or a few. Mix all ingredients. This will keep in the refrigerator and can also be served with fried chicken, fried rice or meat.
