Personal Notes:
These are served in Outback Restaurant as an appetizer. We have a delicious coconut orange marmalade sauce that Christy gave us, and the shrimp and calamari is so good dipped in this. We have to locate some more of it, but you may use any dipping sauce you wish.

Found this in allrecipes.com, a recipe submitted by a "LindAV10". We were looking for a replica of Outback's recipe.
