Salad with shrimp and oranges

Exquisite sweet and sour light salad for the holiday. I had to wait 5 hours for the shrimp to marinate. But the taste turned out fine - due to the contrast of sweet caramelized orange and savory pickled shrimp with sourness, I recommend you try it! My guests appreciated:) It can be kept according to the recipe for 5 hours, or pickled overnight and cooked in the morning.

Step-by-step cooking

Cooking time: 5 h 30 min

Step 1:
We take for cooking everything that you see in the photo, in the right quantities.
Step 2:
Preparing an orange for marinade and serving. We cut the citrus, taking into account how we are going to serve the salad. The easiest way is to peel an orange first, and then cut it. If you take only 1 fruit - the part intended for serving, we put it in the refrigerator. If you plan to leave the shrimp to marinate overnight, you can prepare an orange for serving in the morning.
Step 3:
Garlic is crushed with a garlic chopper or cut with a knife.
Step 4:
Squeeze the orange intended for marinade into a deep dish with shrimp. Add chopped garlic, salt, pepper. Gently mix, cover with cling film / put in a container with an airtight lid and put it in the refrigerator to marinate for 5 hours. You can marinate the shrimp overnight and cook them in the morning. But it's not worth marinating for more than 12 hours.
Step 5:
This is how pickled shrimp look.
Step 6:
When the shrimps are pickled, pour vegetable oil into a deep frying pan (it's better to take it with a thick bottom) and put it on fire. You need quite a bit of oil, 1 tablespoon or even less! When it is heated, we put the shrimp in the pan together with the marinade. While they are frying, be sure to stir, especially at the end of frying - so as not to burn. If you need to make a salad more dietary - do not add oil and just boil the shrimp for min. 5 in the marinade.
Step 7:
When frying, the liquid will gradually evaporate, and after 10-15 minutes you will have only shrimp in oil without juice in the pan. Here they are ready!
Step 8:
Spread on a plate, sprinkle with lemon juice 30 seconds after spreading. Add fresh orange slices to the slightly cooled shrimp.
Step 9:
Serving! We put lettuce leaves on a dish for serving, shrimp with oranges on them. Decorate with orange slices and lettuce, you can sprinkle with white sesame seeds.
Step 10:
Bon appetit!
