Ingredients
  • 1 pound shrimps, peeled
  • 5 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tablespoon ginger powder*
  • ¼ teaspoon turmeric powder
  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil**
  • Coriander leaves for garnish
  • For sauce:
  • 2 teaspoons orange zest
  • 2 tablespoons orange juice
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

  • ½ teaspoon sea salt or to taste
Instructions
  1. Bring water to a rolling boil and cook the shrimps over medium heat for 1 to 3 minutes, depending on their size.
  2. Drain the shrimps in a colander and pour cold water over them to stop the cooking process, set aside.
  3. Whisk all the sauce ingredients together and set aside.
  4. In a non-reactive skillet preheat the coconut oil over medium high heat.
  5. Add the garlic and sauté until fragrant (about 30 seconds), add the ginger powder and turmeric and cook for one more minute or until everything is tender crisp.
  6. Add the earlier prepared sauce to the skillet, reduce the heat to medium and simmer until the sauce is reduced by half and thickens, 2 to 3 minutes.
  7. Add the shrimps, increase the heat to medium-high and cook stirring for one more minute.
  8. Garnish with coriander leaves and serve with cauliflower rice.
Notes
*I made these shrimps hot and spicy but you can make them milder by reducing the amount of ginger.
**You can use ghee if not on the AIP
