Spicy Orange Grilled Shrimp

From Doc Donald, for About.com

These shrimp are marinated in flavorful spiced orange marinade. The secret is to let them spend enough time in the marinade to pick up the heat from the Jalapeno Peppers.

Prep Time: 20 minutes

Cook Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 2 pounds shrimp jumbo, shelled and de-veined
  • 1 cup lime juice fresh
  • 4 Jalapeno peppers, seeded and minced
  • 2 tablespoon Tabasco
  • 1/3 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tablespoon black pepper, fresh ground
  • 1/2 cup orange marmalade
  • 1/2 cup peanut oil or corn oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 4 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped

Preparation:

Mix oil, vinegar, and lime juice together in a sauce pan and heat on a medium setting. Add marmalade, Tabasco sauce, salt, and black pepper then mix well. Add Jalapeno peppers, cilantro, garlic. Remove from heat. Arrange shrimp in a deep glass dish, pour marinade mixture over them, cover, refrigerate for 6-24 hours, then grill until done.
