Prep all of your fruits, juices, and seasonings before you begin and have them handy near the stove as this will cook quickly.

Also, make sure your shrimp is peeled,& deveined and ready to go by the stove (If using raw or precooked frozen shrimp,thaw by running under cold water in a mesh strainer,tossing them with your clean hands to keep them from sticking together, until thawed- drain well and set in a bowl near the stove.) COOKING: Heat oil in a large skillet on medium high heat- you only need enough oil to keep your ingredients from sticking.
