Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
16 lg shrimp
2 tbsp lemon juice
1 tbsp lemon zest
2 tbsp lime juice -- zested and juiced
1 tbsp lime zest
1 jalapeno pepper -- diced
1 tbsp white peppercorns -- crushed
1 tbsp coarse salt
2 tbsp splenda
1/8 tsp molasses -- tiny amount to taste
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp sliced ginger root
2 starfruit -- sliced crosswise
2 oz rum -- 60ml

The zest is the colored part of the lemon and lime rind. Use a vegetable peeler to remove it from fresh fruit, then chop it finely. I saw a zester tool last week in my local supermarket. It peels very fine strips.
Peel shrimp and butterfly by cutting lengthwise so that shrimp open like a book and lie almost flat. Don't cut them in half.
Combine lemon and lime zest, jalapeņo, and white peppercorns and set aside.
Combine lemon and lime juice with splenda and molasses in a small saucepan and simmer until 3 tablespoons are left. Add the salt and zest mixture. Cook for one more minute and remove from heat. Moisten with 1 tablespoon olive oil and let cool.
Press the mixture onto both sides of the butterflied shrimp, then sear in olive oil. Cook for one minute, then add the starfruit and ginger. Add the rum, swirl it around in the pan for a few seconds, and serve.
