    This recipe originally called for uncooked shrimp but I thawed frozen shrimp and used it instead and it worked perfectly.

    Ingredients

    • 3 pounds unpeeled, large fresh shrimp
    • 2 small red onions, sliced
    • 1 yellow bell pepper, sliced
    • 1 cup vegetable oil
    • 1 cup red wine vinegar
    • 3 tablespoons sugar
    • 1 tablespoon grated lemon rind
    • 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
    • 1 tablespoon white wine Worcestershire sauce
    • 1 tablespoon hot sauce
    • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
    • 1/2 teaspoon salt
    • 2 garlic cloves, pressed
    • 1/2 cup chopped fresh basil

    Directions

    1. Layer shrimp, red onion slices, and bell pepper slices in an airtight container.
    2. Whisk together vegetable oil and next 9 ingredients; pour over shrimp. Cover and chill 24 hours, stirring occasionally.
    3. Stir in 1/2 cup chopped basil 1 hour before serving.
