Ingredients:- 1 lb jumbo shrimp, peeled and deveined- 2 tablespoons olive oil- 3 cloves garlic, minced- 1/2 cup orange juice- 1/4 cup lemon juice- 1 tablespoon honey- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard- Zest of 1 orange- Zest of 1 lemon- Salt and pepper to taste- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions:

1. Prepare the shrimp: Rinse the shrimp under cold water and pat them dry with a paper towel. Season the shrimp lightly with salt and pepper.

2. Sauté the shrimp: Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute, until fragrant. Add the shrimp to the pan in a single layer. Cook the shrimp for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until they’re pink and opaque. Remove the shrimp from the pan and set them aside.

3. Make the sauce: In the same pan, add the orange juice, lemon juice, honey, Dijon mustard, and the zest of the orange and lemon. Stir the mixture well to combine and let it simmer for about 3-4 minutes, until it thickens slightly.

4. Combine and serve: Return the cooked shrimp to the pan and toss them in the sauce until they’re well coated. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to ensure the shrimp are heated through.

5. Garnish and serve: Transfer the shrimp to a serving dish and sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley. Serve immediately, perhaps with a side of steamed rice or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
