Fabulous, simple full of flavour would not change a thing in the recipe. I did not have this as an appetizer, served it for 2 with mesculan salad leaves. -
I made this on the grill. Fantastic -
This worked great as a main dish. The shrimp are tart and slightly spicy. It was definitely a nice treat. Thanks for the recipe! -

I'm 41y/o wife and mother of 2. I've been a nurse for 20 years. We live in a small town in Arkansas. My passion is cooking. I love to cook anything and everything. Luckily my family is adventerous in their eating habits, so I have lots of fun trying new things out on them. I also like camping, traveling, gardening,water sports and collecting recipes. I like getting to know other people from other parts of the world. We have 5 pets, 2 dogs and 3 ferrets. My worst pet peeve is when people stick their nose up at a dish before trying it, because they know a certain ingredient is in it. I know everyone has different tastes, but picky eaters just don't know what they are missing when they turn down a dish they havent even tried.
