4 large oranges

1 1/2 tablespoons vegetable oil

1/2 teaspoon minced garlic

16 large uncooked shrimp, peeled and deveined

1 teaspoon hot pepper sauce

1 teaspoon light brown sugar

1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

1 tablespoon cornstarch in 1 tablespoon water

Cut the oranges in half and squeeze the juice into a bowl. (For a special touch, you may want to clean

out the orange halves and use them to serve your final dish.) Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium

heat. Stir the garlic around in the oil for about a minute, not letting it brown. Turn the heat up a bit

and add the shrimp. Stir them as they cook until they are opaque and pink. It shouldn't take much

more than a minute. Add the hot sauce, brown sugar and Worcestershire ... then the orange juice.

Bring to a boil and cook for two minutes. Add the cornstarch mixture and cook until sauce thickens.

Serve with rice or couscous.
