Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Wrap the beets in two layers of aluminum foil and roast until fork-tender, about 1 hour and 45 minutes. Cool, peel and cut the beets into ½-inch sticks.

  2. Step 2

    Toss the shrimps in a mixture made from 1 tablespoon of the oil, half of the grated ginger and 1 tablespoon of the vinegar. Marinate for 1 hour.

  3. Step 3

    Heat the grill. Sprinkle the shrimps with 1 teaspoon of the salt and pepper to taste. Grill until just opaque, about 5 minutes.

  4. Step 4

    Drizzle the beets with the remaining oil, ginger and vinegar. Add the chives, the remaining salt and pepper to taste. Serve with the grilled shrimp.
