Shrimp with Peppered Citrus Fruits
Ingredients
  • 1 pound  fresh or frozen large shrimp in shells
  • 3 medium clementines or seedless tangerines
  • 3/4 cup  water
  • 1/3 cup  sugar
  • 1 teaspoon  whole black peppercorns, coarsely crushed
  • 1 small pink grapefruit
  • 1/2 teaspoon  salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon  freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon  cumin
  • 1 tablespoon  canola oil
Directions

1. Thaw shrimp, if frozen. For pepper-citrus sauce, remove 2 to 3 strips of the thin outer peel of one of the clementines with a vegetable peeler, taking care not to remove the bitter white pith. Place peel in small saucepan; add water, sugar, and peppercorns. Bring to boiling, stirring to dissolve sugar. Broil gently, uncovered, for 15 to 20 minutes or until mixture is reduced to 1/3 cup, stirring occasionally.

2. Meanwhile, peel and devein shrimp, leaving tails intact. Peel and remove white pith from remaining clementines and grapefruit. Cut grapefruit crosswise into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Remove seeds and set slices aside. If desired, leave one clementine whole; break remaining clementines into segments.

3. For shrimp, in a bowl combine salt, ground pepper, and cumin. Add shrimp; toss to coat. In large skillet cook shrimp in hot oil for 3 to 4 minutes or until opaque, turning occasionally. Add clementines and grapefruit to shrimp. Cover; cook over medium heat 1 minute, turning fruit once. Transfer to serving bowl. Pour pepper-citrus sauce over shrimp mixture and toss gently to coat. Makes 4 servings.
