These were lovely, I had some cooked prawns, so just heated those up in the sauce. I used Marsala since that's what I had on hand. Yummy. My phone appears to have eaten my photo, sorry I can't share that one with you.

Cocktail shrimp was on sale, so I used a bit of the oil to cook a clove of minced garlic and just warmed up the pre-cooked shrimp quickly in the oil and sherry. Still turned out great! The tabasco gives it a great little kick. Everybody loved it!

Made it as an appetizer. So delicious, and very easy.

These were delicious! And REALLY only 5 minutes for such impressive taste! I'm impressed. I served them as hors doeuvres tonight just for my husband and myself, (our daughter is going to be so sorry she missed out on these, as she loves shrimp!) I had about 20 of the "large" (30 count) shrimp, and since we don't care for Tabasco, used Tapatio. I used 3 big shakes...afraid of it being too hot for me. It was just so good! Next time I will put some minced garlic in there. Thanks rsarahl, for a recipe that will go down in history with my family and friends!
