For many years a group of Fishermen, from various parts of the country, including myself, met at a fishing lodge in Central Wisconsin. Near the end of our conclave, we would have a large cookout. Everyone was invited. One of the specialties was alliagtor tail brought from the golf courses of Boca Raton, Florida, where one of the fishermen lived. It was always a special treat.

How To Make skewered alligator in lime & ginger sauce

1
Thread alligator meat onto bamboo skewers. Place skewers in a flat dish, season with salt and pepper, pour lime juice over & place in fridge for about 1 hour.

2
Remove skewers from refrigerator, saving residual lime juice for the sauce. Heat olive oil in a frying pan to 350 F, and sauté alligator for about 5 minutes, or until browned, set aside and keep warm.
3
Combine lime juice, honey, brown sugar, ginger, chicken stock and corn starch in a saucepan. Bring to the boil, reduce heat and simmer for 2 minutes.
4
Place skewers on plates, spoon sauce over meat and garnish with fresh herbs.
