Cook the shrimp in boiling salted water. Cool and shell. In a shallow dish, alternate layers of shrimp and sliced very thin onions.
Mix the remaining ingredients together, and pour over shrimp and onions. Refrigerate at least 24 hours, stirring occasionally. Serve in a shallow bowl with marinade, and supply cocktail picks.

I didn't tell you those pizza on a rye the men absolutely love.
Hope you are having help for this VALENTINE PARTY for your new friends. Enjoy!
