Instead of using skewers, I simmered it in the marinade in a fry pan for 10 minutes, and then served over rice. The flavor is a bit too strong this way, so reduce the ginger, pepper and green onion maybe.
Very easy and good! Oh --and I left out the cilantro --yuck!
1/2 cup fresh orange juice (about 2 oranges)
2 Tbs minced green onion
1 Tbs minced peeled fresh ginger
1 Tbs minced fresh cilantro
2 Tbs rice vinegar
2 Tbs low-sodium soy sauce
1 Tbs vegetable oil
2 tsp grated orange rind
1 minced hot red chile (optional)
1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 oranges, peeled, cut in half and quartered
Cooking spray
1. Combine first 9 ingredients in a bowl. Add shrimp; toss to coat. Cover and marinate in refrigerator 15 minutes.
2. Remove shrimp from dish, reserving marinade. Thread shrimp and orange quarters alternately onto each of 8 (8-inch) skewers.
3. Heat large grill pan coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat. Cook skewers 4 minutes on each side or until done, basting with reserved marinade.
