Steps:
- Mix ingredients for the marinade in a large bowl. Add shrimp and toss to coat. If desired, allow to marinate in refrigerator for up to 4 hours. It's not necessary, but obviously the shrimp will be more saturated with the marinade.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of oil on medium in a large cast iron skillet [wok or non-stick skillets will work, too]. Add green onion and sauté until soft.
- Add shrimp and cook for 4-6 minutes until shrimp are cooked through. They should look white and start to curl up. Don't overcook - they will become rubbery and tough.

Steps:
- Heat a grill to medium-high heat.
- Put the shrimp into a glass bowl. Whisk the remaining ingredients in a medium bowl and pour 1/2 to 2/3 if it over the shrimp. (Reserve the remaining marinade to brush on the shrimp during grilling.) Allow the shrimp to marinate for only 8 to 10 minutes or the lime juice will begin to "cook" the shrimp. Grill the shrimp, approximately 2 to 3 minutes per side while brushing with the reserved marinade. I use a silicone brush. Remove the shrimp from the grill to a platter and serve garnished with lime wedges.

Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- In a bowl, combine oyster sauce, soy sauce, fish sauce, brown sugar, garlic, lime juice, and chili pepper. Stir until the sugar has dissolved.
- Place shrimp in the marinade and stir well to coat.
- In a wok or frying pan, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the shrimp along with the marinade.
- Stir-fry for 2 to 3 minutes or until the shrimp are plump and pink. They will also be lightly browned from the sauce. Avoid overcooking or the shrimp will turn rubbery.
- Test the sauce for taste and adjust as needed to achieve a salty-sweet balance. Add more sugar if it's too sour. If it's too salty or sweet, add more lime juice.
- Top the shrimp with coriander and add some lemon slices on the side. Enjoy!

EASY THAI GARLIC SHRIMP
I grew up on white rice, gravy and gumbo. I had never heard of soy sauce until I was a young adult and had gone to work. Jasmine rice...just ate it for the first time last year. Now I have a refrigerator and pantry stocked with sambal oelek, sriracha, oyster and fish sauce. I am testimony to adventure and change. Now go buy some oyster and fish sauce and try the recipe! Note: This is a glazed shrimp recipe, do not expect an abundant amount of sauce.

SAUTEED SHRIMP WITH LEMON AND GARLIC
My favorite way to saute fresh shrimp. This is so quick and simple. Serve over rice or angel hair pasta (I usually saute a little more garlic in olive oil and toss it with the pasta before topping with the shrimp). Yum!

THAI GARLIC SHRIMP
This delicious recipe is from the book Fresh Thai by Oi Cheepchaiissara. The cilantro roots add a depth of flavor that you should try if you can get them; if not, substitute cilantro stems (preferable) or leaves. Wonderful with steamed rice to soak up the sauce. The prep time is for shrimp that is already peeled and deveined. Serves 4 as an appetizer or 2 as a main dish.
