Not only was this quick and easy but it got rave reviews at my New Year's Eve party. Everyone wants the recipe. I removed the shrimp tails, marinated for about 6 hours, and then after adding the orange slices and basil placed about a tablespoon in chilled oriental white soup spoons arranged on a platter.
