Shrimp in Apricot Marinade

Ingredients 0/11

Directions

Stir the apricots with the orange liqueur in a small bowl and let it sit for at least 15 minutes to soak up the flavors. Meanwhile, heat the butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Toss in the bell pepper and green onions, stirring constantly for about 2 minutes until they start to soften. Add the garlic and cook for another minute until it smells amazing. Turn the heat down to medium, then add the shrimp, cooking until they turn pink, which should take around 2 minutes. Pour in the apricot and orange liqueur mixture and let everything cook together, stirring occasionally, for about 3 minutes. In a separate bowl, whisk together the water, lemon juice, soy sauce, cornstarch, and a pinch of pepper. Pour this sauce into the skillet and stir until it thickens slightly and everything is heated through, about a minute more. Serve and enjoy!
