EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

This succulent shrimp dish is good as is, and it's also delicious served over hot cooked rice or fettuccine.

Shrimp is very perishable. Store it uncooked in the refrigerator no longer than 1 to 2 days.

Cook the shrimp only 2 to 3 minutes, stirring frequently. Shrimp will turn pink when done.

Absolutely wonderful, light, and a change from "drenched in sauce" meals. We decided to serve with Angel hair pasta and Romano cheese. As an after thought, we added diced tomato to the dish as a garnish. Definitely a keeper
