"Sunday Spotlight" Orange Chipotle Shrimp


So here's the "Sunday Spotlight" a day late! (Sorry about that, I ran my first 8k this weekend and was sort of lazy the rest of the weekend)...Forgive me:)

This is a great recipe sent to me by Jessica D - The recipe is from Kraft Recipes (http://www.kraftrecipes.com/recipes/chipotle-orange-shrimp-112910.aspx) - we made last night and it was so good! If you like spicy, this is definitely the dish for you!

AND, super easy for a weeknight meal, and only 5 ingredients.

Ingredients:
1/3 cup KRAFT Zesty Italian Dressing
1-1/2 lb.  uncooked deveined peeled large shrimp (I bought frozen in a bag)
1/4 cup orange marmalade
1-2 Tbsp.  chopped canned chipotle peppers in adobo sauce (you can usually find this near the canned tomatoes in the grocery store)
3 cups  hot cooked long-grain white rice
 
Heat dressing in large skillet on medium-high heat. Add shrimp; cook 4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add marmalade and 1 Tbsp peppers; cook and stir 3 min. or until shrimp are tender. (I would taste the sauce here, and if you want more spice, add another Tbsp. adobo sauce). Remove from heat.
 
Option - sprinkle with cilantro.
 
Serve over rice! This is so easy - thank you Jessica D! :)
