Steps:

• In a jar with a tight fitting lid, combine the oil, vinegar, sugar, parsley, salt and pepper. Cover and shake well. Refrigerate until use.

Steps:

• Remove the shrimp to a bowl and toss with half of the dressing.
• Deglaze the pan over medium heat with the remaining vinegar, scraping the bottom of the pan. Pour over the shrimp. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and set aside.
