2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme

  • What to drink:
  • Champagne is a great pairing for this entire menu. One to try: the fruity, toasty Philippe Gonet NV Brut Reserve Champagne (France, $30).

This recipe looks delicious, but I don't have time to cook it right now. I'll definitely try it later.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my shrimp turned out rubbery.

I'm allergic to shrimp, so I made this recipe with chicken instead. It was still very good.

I didn't have any chipotle peppers, so I used paprika instead. The shrimp still turned out great.

The shrimp were a little overcooked, but the remoulade was delicious.
