This was just fabulous! I just love all the garlic and herbs. Didn`t do the salt and didn`t need it. I cut this recipe in half. The herbs I used were all fresh and the thai chili peppers came right out of the garden.I cooked the shrimp all at one time. And didn`t bother with straining all the good stuff. This is a MUST for all you shrimp and garlic lovers!Reply
