This looks delicious, thank you. I need to try it soon. We love shrimp and I'm always looking for new ways to prepare them. They cook so fast and usually the preparation is so simple and easy.

Except for the deveining, of course. Is there a more disagreeable job in the kitchen? I don't think so.

I've had something like that, but the recipe was slightly different. Doesn't matter, if it's shrimp, I like it. Unless it's on fire.

Yes, I'll try this one for a change. We always cook fish, meat, and pork. For a weekend family get together, this sounds great. Thanks for the recipe. Can i use vinegar instead of lemon juice?
