Island Shrimp And Macaroni Recipes

Steps:

• For the island salsa: Combine mango, pineapple, strawberries, onion, jalapeno and lime juice in a bowl. Set aside.
• For the shrimp: Prepare shrimp seasoning by combining salt, pepper and garlic powder in a bowl.
• Prepare shrimp by sprinkling them on both sides with shrimp seasoning. Heat vegetable oil in large saute pan on medium to medium-high heat. Once oil is hot and sizzling, place shrimp in pan and cook until translucent on one side, approximately 1 1/2 minutes. Flip, then cook on other side until sides are curled up and translucent, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Remove shrimp from pan, cut into chunks and set aside.
• Place a whole-wheat tortilla shell on a flat surface, then place a small amount of each ingredient on top: spring lettuce mix, diced tomatoes, cooked shrimp chunks and island salsa. Spread along the bottom of the tortilla shell, making sure not to overfill. Take sides of tortilla shell and fold in towards center so the filling can still be seen. Bring up the bottom flap and continue to roll upward while tucking sides as rolled to the top, making sure to roll tightly to keep wrap together. Cut in a diagonal. Repeat with remaining ingredients.

Steps:

• Prepare the dressing for this dish. Microwave lime in a small bowl for about 30 seconds to release essential oils, and set aside until it is just cool enough to handle. Through the feed tube of a running blender add, 1 at a time, orange juice, rice wine vinegar, garlic, 2 tablespoons of the orange marmalade, to taste, (you will use the rest if, after you taste it, you decide it needs to be sweetened) and the juice from the now slightly cooled lime. With the blender still running, add the olive oil in a slow stream. Adjust flavor to your liking with additional orange marmalade, if necessary, and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Set the dressing aside briefly.
