My dh & I really enjoyed the shrimp prepared this way. It had so much flavor. Loved the combination of spices. I made this dish with large raw shrimp they turned out tender and succulent. Next time I make this I will use less butter, maybe 3 ounces. I can't imagine this lasting in the house longer than it takes to plate them. So good. I will be making these again. Thanks so much for sharing another winner.
