This recipe is a great starting point. I made a few changes to suit my own taste, but it was still very good.

I cooked the shrimp for a little too long and they were a bit tough. Next time I will cook them for less time.

This recipe is a bit too bland for my taste. I added some red pepper flakes and it was much better.

I'm not a huge fan of dill, so I used parsley instead. It was still very good.
