These were good, but the soy and shrimp were not my favorite flavor combination. I reduced the recipe down to a single serving and made as stated except that my shrimp had been peeled and I pan grilled as our weather wasn't the best for outdoors cooking. I liked the lime and garlic, so given the other reviews, might try this again with less soy sauce, and on the grill, to see if it would be more to my taste. Thanks for sharing Scoutie.

<p>Hello all, being from California, I can honestly say I am a foodie. You can walk by construction workers here and hear them saying things like, So I used some fresh garlic and olive oil, then threw the rest into the pan to sautee. LOL I love all kinds of food, and trying to eat healthier as I get older, but still indulge in the occasional deep-fried food or sweet. <br />I LOVE this site! I have 3 or 4 other food sites such as Epicurious and Food Network, but I always come back here! The ease and all of the features just can't be beat. <br />Thanks Zaar and I look forward to participating more.</p>
