| 2 cloves |

| 1 tsp |

| 1 Tbsp |
molasses |
| 1/4 tsp |

Combine the garlic, shallot, paprika, chili powder, molasses, vanilla extract, ground cumin, salt, pepper, grapeseed oil and shrimp in a large zipper bag.
Toss the shrimp in the bag until well coated with the spices. This can be done up to 24 hours in advance and kept in the refrigerator. The shrimp will be best if they marinate for at least a few hours.
When you are ready to serve preheat the oven to 400°F. Place a large non-stick skillet in the oven and after the oven is hot spray the hot pan lightly with oil. Add the diced onions to the pan and return the skillet to the oven. Cook the onions for about 5, stir and cook for five more minutes in the oven.
Add the shrimp. Cook for about 7 - 10 minutes tossing the shrimp in the pan a couple of times. Remove from the oven and place in a large bowl. Let the barbecued shrimp cool and then cover and chill for about an hour.
After the shrimp is cooled fold in the diced celery and mayonnaise and serve.
