Directions
1. Rinse shrimp and pat dry; transfer to a bowl. Add 1 tablespoon each oil, lime juice and garlic; toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Marinate at room temperature 15 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, whisk together remaining 2 tablespoons lime juice, 14 teaspoon garlic, the orange juice and jalapeno. Add 4 tablespoons oil in a slow stream, whisking until combined well. Stir in onion and cilantro; salt and pepper to taste, for vinaigrette.
