Buffalo Shrimp (Oamc)

Submitted by CraftScout

"This recipe comes from 30DayGourmet.com, a great resource for OAMC meal planning. This recipe can be made using the big bags of frozen already cooked shrimp, and can be made hot or not depending on whether you add the hot sauce (of course, this changes the recipe from "Buffalo" shrimp to just Shrimp in a Yummy Marinade!). I made these as written using Frank's Hot Sauce, and it was good buffalo flavor, but not nuclear hot, which I loved, but my chili head DH just thought was good. Prep time includes cooking (but not peeling) the shrimp. Recipe will double, triple, or more easily."

This was tasty! I didn't freeze it first, just used the precooked shrimp and threw them in a plastic baggie with the "marinade" and let it chill out in the fridge for a few hours. I heated them up in a pan on the stove. It couldn't have been any easier! Thanks for sharing!
