1/2 cup fresh orange juice
2 Tbsp. Sriracha
1 Tbsp. honey
2 tsp. soy sauce or tamari soy sauce
1/4 cup plus 2 Tbsp. vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Whisk orange juice, Sriracha, honey, soy sauce, 1/4 cup oil, and 1 Tbsp. lime juice in a medium bowl. Set aside half of dressing in a small bowl for serving. Add shrimp to remaining sauce and toss to coat; season lightly with salt. Let sit, tossing occasionally, 15 minutes.

2 tsp. soy sauce or tamari soy sauce
¼ cup plus 2 Tbsp. vegetable oil
1 Tbsp. plus 1 tsp. fresh lime juice
1½ lb. jumbo or large shrimp, peeled, deveined
Kosher salt
2 large oranges, preferably different varieties (such as Cara Cara or Valencia)
2 Persian cucumbers, quartered lengthwise, sliced crosswise ½" thick
4 scallions, thinly sliced
Steamed rice and sliced avocado (for serving)

Steps:

  • Whisk orange juice, Sriracha, honey, soy sauce, ¼ cup oil, and 1 Tbsp. lime juice in a medium bowl. Set aside half of dressing in a small bowl for serving. Add shrimp to remaining sauce and toss to coat; season lightly with salt. Let sit, tossing occasionally, 15 minutes. Meanwhile, using a paring knife, remove peel and white pith from oranges, being careful not to remove too much of the flesh; discard. Slice oranges into ½"-thick rounds, then cut into 1" pieces.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and tools ready to go. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling around in the kitchen.
  • Choose Fresh Ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your dish will taste. Look for shrimp that is firm and has a slight briny smell, and use fresh citrus fruits for the best flavor.
  • Do Not Overcook the Shrimp: Shrimp cooks quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Overcooked shrimp will become tough and rubbery.
  • Use a Variety of Citrus Fruits: Feel free to mix and match different types of citrus fruits to create a unique flavor profile. Some good options include oranges, lemons, limes, and grapefruits.
  • Make Extra Sauce: The citrus-soy sauce is delicious on its own, so make extra to drizzle over the rice bowls or use as a dipping sauce for other dishes.

Conclusion:

Citrus shrimp rice bowls are a healthy and flavorful meal that are perfect for a quick and easy weeknight dinner.
