Seafood is one of my favorite dishes. I was born in San Diego, and I love all types of ocean fish and seafood. Shrimp is one of my favorite things to serve now that I live in Idaho because I can buy it frozen and still get a really tasty and satisfying seafood meal.
Shrimp is easy to cook as long as you dont overcook it. This recipe only takes a few minutes to prepare and it tastes like a specialty dish from a nice restaurant.
I love the combination of tangy orange and spicy barbecue sauce. The sesame oil is what makes many Asian dishes really special, and you only need a little to get that wonderful flavor.
I like to serve this dish with a simple side of rice or noodles because the sauce is so delicious; you just have to find a way to use it all. So drizzle away and enjoy this easy and delicious shrimp dish.
