This dish, with its delicate, slightly spoon-coating, golden caramel-colored sauce is great for a quick company dinner or a romantic evening. I have served this recipe with a combination of seafood and it works out beautifully. You can try it with lobster tails and scallops for a fantastic presentation.

Combine the shrimp with 1 tablespoon of oil, seasoning, salt, and pepper in a plastic zipper bag. Refrigerate for 10 minutes or until ready to use.
Prepare the savory passion fruit sauce: Combine the passion fruit pulp, stock, sugar, cornstarch, coffee, salt and pepper in a blender until smooth, about 15 seconds.

In a hot skillet or a sauté pan over medium-high heat place 1 tablespoon of oil and add the shrimp separated from each other and cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side.

Meanwhile, pour the passion fruit sauce into a nonreactive heavy saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat. Cook for 3 minutes. (The sauce will thicken slightly). Remove from the heat and add the butter, mix to melt and be absorbed.

Divide the sauce between two serving plates; arrange the shrimp over the sauce and drizzle a bit of caramel sauce over the shrimp.
