I found this to be a deliciously different way to serve shrimp. Do you find that you are always making the same recipes and eating food the served the same way? When you go out to eat do you always order the same dish or change it up a bit and try something new? I’m all about trying new recipes – it’s always good to change things up instead of remaining status quo. And what could be the worst thing to happen? You don’t like it …oh well at least you tried! ENJOY!
