Gorda's Sizzling Spicy Shrimp

In large shallow bowl, combine the lemon juice, garlic, 1 tablespoon of the oil, cilantro, cayenne, turmeric, and salt(Keep in mind that some shrimp are sold frozen with salt already added to them so if you're using frozen instead of fresh, please be careful with the amount of salt you add.) Stir well and taste...the marinade should be tangy and a lil spicy. Add the shrimp and toss to coat evenly with the marinade.

Heat a large skillet on high heat and add the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil. When the oil is HOT, add the shrimp and marinade to the pan, leave the heat on high & toss (mix, stir) the shrimp several times. Cover the pan while the shrimp cook so all the marinade doesn't evaporate. When the shrimp are just pink (about 5 minutes cooking time- do not over cook!) remove and arrange them on a platter, pouring any remaining juices over & enjoy!

SIDE NOTE FROM GORDA:You can also enjoy these suckers on the barbecue. Use wooden skewers that have been soaked in water for at least half an hour. Skewer the shrimp, draining and reserving the marinade and barbecue them over high heat until just cooked & don't forget to occasionally baste with the marinade while cooking the shrimp! :)
