I had 2½ pounds of extra large shrimp, and I had to almost triple the marinade recipe. Also, I added lemon juice and lots of garlic powder to the steaming water. Then I took them to a potluck birthday party and they were a huge hit. I could probably have gotten away with SELLING your recipe!!!

I made this recipe for a party and everyone raved. I had 2 lbs (35 to 40 per pound)of shrimp and had to double the recipe. I also cut the hot sauce in half but I don't think I really would have had to do this because it wasn't that spicy. I made it the night before which enhanced the flavor even more and helped ease some of the work the day of the party. This recipe will surely be included in most of the parties that I give from now on.

These were great Dorothy. I did not have a lemon on hand so I used balsamic vinegar as the acid and, believe it or not, it was fantastic. I noted this on the recipe and I doubt I'll make this with lemon. Try it. . . . you'll like it!! Thanks again Dorothy.

This is fabulous! I bought already cooked, shelled and deveined shrimp and then made this great marinade. Everyone raved! It reminded me a Mee Grob - a Thai dish we all love. Not too spicy - just flavorful. Tastes like it is alot more trouble than it is - gotta love that.

It seems I'm the only one who is not giving this a 5 star rating. We were very disappointed in this. I followed the recipe exactly and marinaded it overnight and into the next afternoon. It's not terrible or anything. It was edible,just way too subtle for our tastes. I added more seafood sauce (spicy) and it still didn't do it. When we ate it, we sprinkled Old Bay seasoning on it. We would have been happier to just dip plain cooked shrimp in cocktail sauce. I'll put the leftovers in a salad or something, but I won't make this again. Sorry.

Very good! I used about 3/4 pound of shrimp and halved the marinade ingredients. I didn't have chives on hand, and since the recipe already included green onion, I didn't feel their omission was crucial enough to warrant a trip to the store. Thanks for posting, Derf!

Very-Very Good! I've made this & the beer marinade shrimp for our christmas. Everone loves them. This year I added a bit more tobasco. A nice touch. We still use cocktail sauce for dipping, it just adds to the flavor.
