    This sounds delish!
    And, as I keep *fresh squeezed lime juice (and lemon juice) in the freezer as a staple, I can try this tonight! Everyone sounds like they've really enjoyed this.
    *Note: I buy lemons and limes in bulk and squeeze them into ice cube trays to freeze for ease of use.Very Handy.

    Yum! After reading the other comments, I added ginger and used the juice of 2 limes and let it marinate for a couple hours (if you left it overnight, the shrimp would be nearly cooked by the acid!).
    I also used about half an onion. Next time I'll drain off the juice before sauteing, so it will sear

    This is great! I was in the mood for Mexican, so I added minced garlic and cumin. Since this is low in calories, I put a few shrimp in a fajita-sized flour tortilla with lettuce, tomato, and light sour cream. 2 shrimp tacos + 1 c of spanish rice = about 450 calories and is very filling and tasty! - 2/22/08

    Added red pepper flakes for spice and garlic, too. Used other half of lime just before eating for extra fresh lime taste. Good stuff! - 6/29/09
