Report

Plump juicy shrimp in the best marinade! Make sure to cook these shrimp right after combining with the marinade or the citrus can start to cook the shrimp.

Instructions

Clean the shrimp, remove the shells. Make a slit down the back of the shrimp and clean well. This will also create the "butterfly" effect. Pat shrimp dry with paper towels.
Mix together all of the ingredients except the shrimp.
Add shrimp and coat well with the mixture. Cook within 10 minutes of combining or the lemon juice will start to cook the shrimp.
In a large saute pan, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil on medium-high heat.
Add the shrimp and cook about 1 1/2 minutes on each side, or until cooked through.

Notes

It's easy to over-cook shrimp and make them rubbery and keep in mind, as long as the skillet is hot, it will keep cooking even if you turn off the stove.
