I'm not a big fan of seafood, but I really enjoyed this dish. The shrimp were cooked perfectly and the chorizo added a nice flavor. I will definitely be making this again.

This dish was very easy to make and very flavorful. I used a pre-cooked chorizo which made it even easier. I served it with rice and it was a perfect meal. I will definitely be making this again.

This dish was a bit too spicy for me, but I still enjoyed it. The shrimp were cooked perfectly and the chorizo added a nice flavor. I will definitely be making this again, but I will use less chorizo next time.

I made this dish last night and it was a hit! My family loved it. The only change I made was to add a bit more garlic. I will definitely be making this again.
