Quite tasty, and very easy! I made this with one pound of raw shrimp, sauteed with the garlic, and salt and pepper, before adding the lime juice and zest ~ I just couldn't wrap my head around raw garlic! Because my shrimp amount was less than the recipe called for, I reduced the other ingredients appropriately. Made for Newest Zaar Tag ~
