Spicy Garlic Shrimp

Spicy Garlic Shrimp

This recipe kicks! The flavor is just as daring as you are, heady from the generous use of garlic and a touch of red pepper.

This recipe is really good. My only recommendation would be to not cut it in half if you are serving 4. I did that and 1 lb of shrimp is not enough. Lots of garlic! Also, its not noted, but this is a pretty low sodium dish as there is none added.
