Follow The Directions

01

Step
2 mins

In a saucepan, bring the rice and water to a rolling boil. (2 minutes)

02

Step
25 mins

Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and gently simmer until the rice is tender and all liquid is absorbed. (20-25 minutes)

03

Step
1 mins

While the rice simmers, heat the zesty Italian dressing in a large skillet over medium-high heat. (1 minute)

04

Step
4 mins

Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until they begin to turn pink and firm up. (Approximately 4 minutes)

05

Step
3 mins

Stir in the orange marmalade and chopped chipotle peppers, ensuring the shrimp are evenly coated. Continue cooking until the shrimp are completely pink and cooked through. (3 minutes)

06

Step
1 mins

Remove from heat and fold in the fresh cilantro. (1 minute)

07

Step

Serve the Chipotle-Orange Shrimp immediately over the bed of fluffy rice.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider marinating the shrimp in a portion of the salad dressing for 30 minutes before cooking.
Adjust the amount of chipotle peppers to your preferred spice level. A little goes a long way!
Freshly squeezed orange juice can be used as a substitute if you don't have orange marmalade.
Serve with a side of steamed broccoli or a crisp green salad for a complete and balanced meal.
