This was just lovely! Made exactly as written, though a storm rolled in at the last moment and we were forced to put the shrimp under the broiler instead of on the grill. I had a fair amount of sauce left over for dipping, and it really did have a lovely combination of flavors. Served with a baked potato and recipe #454644 this made for a lovely African-influenced meal! Made for ZWT 7, for the Vivacious Violets.
