directions

Step 1

Mix all the marinade ingredients in a large non metallic bowl. Add the shrimp, toss and marinate for 5 minutes or so.

Step 2

Heat a skillet over medium high heat, sauté the shrimp until they are pink. The larger they are, the longer it takes. Large take less than 5 minutes, jumbo around 4 minutes.

Step 3

Remove the shrimp to a serving bowl using a slotted spoon and set aside.

Step 4

Turn the heat up to high and reduce the “sauce” in half. Pour over the shrimp, sprinkle with cilantro and serve over pasta, rice or as a Tapas appetizer dish, complete with toothpicks.
