Sweet Orange Shrimp


This is a Publix recipe meaning it's an easy meal for a weeknight dinner.  And what an interesting combination of flavors: orange, horseradish, and some honey for sweetness.  Now for my tastes, I think I will add a bit more orange juice and reduce the horseradish by  half....for me, the horseradish overwhelmed the shrimp just a bit.  But I do love horseradish, but more of a whisper than a full-out shout.

SWEET ORANGE SHRIMP (4 servings)

Juice of 1-2 medium oranges (1/2 cup)
1/4 cup light mayo
2 Tbsp prepared horseradish
1 Tbsp honey
1 tsp seasoned salt
1 Tbsp canola oil
1 pound large peeled, deveined shrimp (thawed)
1 Tbsp quick-mixing flour (like Wondra.....however, I used regular AP flour)

Whisk in orange juice, mayo, horseradish, honey, and seasoned salt until blended; set aside.

Preheat large saute pan on medium-high for 2-3 minutes.  Place oil in pan, then add shrimp; sprinkle with flour.  Cook and stir 2-3 minutes or until shrimp just being to turn pink.

Stir in orange juice mixture; reduce heat to medium.  Simmer and stir 3-4 minutes or until shrimp are opaque and sauce thickens.  Serve.
