Preparation

Place all ingredients except the shrimp and cilantro in a large airtight container. Season with salt and pepper, then mix well.
Add the shrimp, seal the container, and shake well to coat evenly with the marinade. Refrigerate for 1 hour, stirring occasionally.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Pour only the marinade into the pan and let it reduce for about 2 minutes, until slightly thickened.
Add the shrimp and cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side, until pink and coated in a glossy, syrupy sauce.
Transfer to a plate and garnish with fresh cilantro. Serve as an appetizer or main course with rice or noodles and vegetables!
