Robyn Stone’s Citrus Shrimp

Robyn Stone_Add a Pinch_Citrus Shrimp_recipe

Although my family spent most weekends on Lake Martin, at least one week of the year was reserved for the beach. We’d pack Mama’s car to the gills and head out well before daybreak so that we’d arrive in plenty of time for supper, since we knew Daddy would cook fresh Gulf shrimp. This citrus shrimp recipe takes me right back to those trips. Bright and fresh from the citrus, it’s fast enough for a weeknight meal and pretty enough for entertaining, especially when served on a platter with lemon and orange wedges.

Recipe Notes

Robyn's Leftover Makeover: Citrus Shrimp and Avocado Salad
If you have any shrimp left over, toss them with about 2 tablespoons finely chopped red onion and 2 chopped avocados, and serve on a bed of mixed lettuce greens. Make a vinaigrette by whisking together 1/4 cup olive oil, 1/4 cup red wine vinegar, 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, and 1/2 teaspoon Stone House Seasoning and serve with the salad. Makes about 1/2 cup vinaigrette.

    This was excellent. I changed the cooking directions slightly — I retrieved the shrimp from the marinade and grilled them while I reduced the sauce, then added the shrimp back into the sauce. The grilling gave the dish a nice summery touch.
