CITRUS MARINATED SHRIMP



Citrus Marinated Shrimp image

My Mom served this as a starter to dinner last week. I don't know where it was originally published but it's accredited to Peter Dorsey of Warwick, Rhode Island The preparation time does not include the 24 hour marinating time. My Mom didn't marinate the shrimp for the full 24 hours and the dish was still delicious.

Time 12m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 18

3 lemon slices, thin slices
2 bay leaves
1/2 cup water
1 pinch salt
1 pinch pepper
1 lb shrimp, unshelled (about 32)
1/4 cup ketchup
1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/3 cup fresh lemon juice
2 teaspoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon celery seed
1/2 teaspoon mustard seeds
1/4 teaspoon Tabasco sauce
1 orange, thinly sliced
1 white onion, thinly sliced
salt and pepper, to taste
lettuce leaf, for lining the plates

Steps:

  • Combine first 5 ingredients in a saucepan and bring to a boil.
  • Add shrimp and boil them, covered, for 1 to 2 minutes, or until pink and just firm to the touch.
  • Drain shrimp in colander, refresh them under cold water, and shell and devein them.
  • In a bowl, combine ketchup, garlic, vegetable oil, lemon juice, sugar, celery seeds, mustard seeds, Tabasco, organe, onion and salt and pepper.
  • Toss shrimp with marinade and chill mixture, covered, for 24 hours.
  • Drain shrimp and arrange on lettuce leaves on serving plates.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, large shrimp. This will ensure that your shrimp are plump and juicy.
  • Make sure to devein the shrimp. This will remove the digestive tract, which can be gritty and unappetizing.
  • Use a flavorful marinade. The marinade in this recipe is made with a combination of citrus juices, olive oil, spices, and herbs. It infuses the shrimp with tons of flavor.
  • Let the shrimp marinate for at least 30 minutes. This will give the marinade time to penetrate the shrimp and really flavor them.
  • Cook the shrimp over medium heat. This will prevent them from overcooking and becoming tough.
  • Serve the shrimp immediately. They are best enjoyed when they are hot and fresh off the grill.

Conclusion:

This citrus and clove marinated shrimp recipe is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The shrimp are succulent and flavorful, and the marinade adds a delightful citrusy and spicy flavor. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
