    List of Ingredients




    3 cups fresh lime juice
    1/4 cup orange marmalade
    3 large garlic cloves, minced and mashed to a paste with 1 teaspoon salt
    1/2 cup fresh coriander sprigs, washed well, spun dry, and chopped fine
    2 tablespoons olive oil
    1 tablespoon soy sauce
    1/2 teaspoon dried hot red pepper flakes
    1 pound large (21 to 24 per pound) shrimp, shelled, leaving tail and first shell section intact, and if desired, deveined

    Recipe



    In a measuring cup whisk together lime juice, marmalade, garlic paste, coriander, 1 tablespoon oil, soy sauce, red pepper flakes, and salt and pepper to taste and reserve 1/4 cup mixture in a small bowl or ramekin for dipping. In a large sealable plastic bag combine shrimp with remaining mixture and marinate, chilled, tossing occasionally to coat shrimp, 45 minutes.
    Drain shrimp and lightly pat dry between paper towels. In a large non-stick skillet heat 1 1/2 teaspoons oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and saute half of shrimp until golden brown and cooked through, about 1 1/2 minutes on each side. Saute remaining shrimp in remaining 1 teaspoon oil in same manner.

    Garnish shrimp with coriander sprigs and serve with reserved dipping sauce. Yield: Approximately 24 hors d'oeuvres
