I've made this dish many times in the past, but of course, for some reason, I haven't made it in ages. The other day I was thumbing through one of my cookbooks when I was reminded of it. I've also made this with chicken too, so if you aren't a fan of shrimp, don't run away. This is a very simple dish with a very fancy name and if you like a bit of spice in your life, this recipe is made just for you!

Devilishly good I would say.
This is one of my all time favorite dishes. I haven't made it in ages either. I will give your recipe a try. I have all the ingredients on hand too...even the shrimp in the freezer!!!!
All those wonderful ingredients could make even me eat shrimp. :-) And now I have to back away from the computer and go visit the dentist. Why do I still hate that, even when it's just a cleaning. I think they plant cavity seeds, don't you? Have a great day, Jenn. Pinning this recipe!
