Shrimp Saute

Derf's Note:

A favoured Shrimp dish, looks pretty on a buffet and tastes as good! Can be used as an appy, spread shrimp out on a platter lined with baby greens,drizzle heated sauce from the saute pan over all, instead of serving in a bowl with rice. Or serve for dinner over brown rice.

Very tasty low carbohydrate meal. Vegetables compliment the Shrimp perfectly. I added a few dashes of hot sauce.

I made this reeipe a couple of days ago. I followed instructions, but substituted a yellow onion. ( too lazy to run to the market). It was great. It made the top 15 in our house.
