  • Add all the ingredients except the juice of ½ of the lemon and the shrimp to an oven safe skillet. Stir to combine and simmer for 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Remove the skillet from heat and let it cool for 5 minutes.
  • Add the shrimp and stir it so that the shrimp are all well coated in the sauce.
  • Cover with foil and refrigerate for 1-2 hours.

To Serve

  • Preheat oven to 400ºF.
  • Bake shrimp and sauce for 10 to 15 minutes, until shrimp is opaque.
  • Serve with a spoon of sauce over pasta or rice. Top with a sprinkle of lemon juice.

Notes

For a bariatric portion, serve 5 ounces of shrimp over 3 ounces of cauliflower rice.
This recipe requires a few specialized ingredients: sweet chili sauce, liquid smoke, smoked paprika, and sriracha, all of which we typically purchase from Amazon because it's easier than hunting at many different grocery stores.
