We love shrimps, this recipe is delicious and full of amazing flavors. We really enjoyed the fact that you could taste all the flavors in the marinade in the shrimp, basting them with the marinade takes it over the top. Quick and easy to make with terrific results. Thanks for sharing another winner Nancy. I will be making this one again with collosal shrimps, can't wait.
