To prepare, simply remove the shrimp from its packaging. You can cook it using various methods such as pan-searing, grilling, or baking. For pan-searing, heat a little oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the shrimp for a few minutes per side until pink and opaque. If grilling, place the shrimp on skewers and grill for a few minutes per side. Baking can be done on a sheet pan at around 400°F (200°C) until cooked through. The marinade will caramelize slightly during cooking, enhancing the flavor.
