Easy Tropical Shrimp image

This recipe was found in a supermarket pamplet put out by the Florida Bureau of Seafood and Aquaculture. I thought it was pretty good and easy to make. The picture shows the shrimp served on sauted vegetables (thinly sliced carrots, shallots and snow peas) which I made with the marinade.
