Ingredients
  

  • 2 pounds shrimp
  • 1 Tablespoon ground coriander
  • 1 tsp cilantro
  • 1 tsp parsley
  • 1 Tablespoon grated lemon rind
  • Juice of half a lemon
  • 1 Tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 Tablespoon fish sauce
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • optional ½ teaspoon Thai red curry paste
  • 1 Tablespoon vegetable oil

Instructions
 

  • Peel and de-vein the shrimp.
  • Combine the coriander, cilantro, parsley, lemon rind, lemon juice, 1 Tablespoon olive oil, fish sauce, minced garlic and Thai curry paste (if you are using it) in the mixing bowl.
  • Stir in the shrimp so that they are covered with the marinade.
  • (optional) Cover and marinade for up to an hour in the refrigerator.
  • Heat 1 Tablespoon vegetable oil in the frying pan over medium-high heat.
