Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Large Shrimp (peeled and deveined, tails on)
- 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black Pepper
- 0.5 cup Orange Juice (freshly squeezed)
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 3 tablespoons Dijon Mustard
- 1 tablespoon Chipotle in Adobo Sauce (minced)
- 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 1 teaspoon Zest of Orange
- 2 tablespoons Fresh Cilantro (chopped, for garnish)
Instructions
In a medium bowl, toss the shrimp with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Set aside to marinate while you prepare the sauce.
In a small saucepan, combine orange juice, honey, Dijon mustard, minced chipotle in adobo, minced garlic, and orange zest. Whisk together and bring to a simmer over medium heat.
Cook the sauce for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens slightly. Remove from heat and set aside.
Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Place the shrimp in the hot pan in a single layer. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are pink and opaque.
Reduce the heat to medium-low. Pour the prepared orange chipotle honey mustard sauce over the shrimp, tossing to coat evenly. Allow the shrimp to simmer in the sauce for 1-2 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Transfer the shrimp to a serving platter, spooning any remaining sauce over the top.
Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro and serve immediately. Enjoy!
