This is a family favorite. We serve it with a plain white rice that will absorb the delicious sauce....finger licking. Sometimes we decorate the platter with whole boiled eggs.

This recipe was a bit too bland for my taste. I would recommend adding more spices next time.

The shrimp were a bit rubbery, but the sauce was delicious. I think I'll try cooking the shrimp for a shorter amount of time next time.

I didn't have any white wine vinegar, so I used apple cider vinegar instead. The shrimp still turned out great and the sauce was delicious. I'll definitely be making this again.

This recipe is a bit too spicy for my taste, but it was still very good. I would recommend using less piri piri sauce if you don't like spicy food.

I had some trouble finding piri piri sauce, but I was able to substitute it with a combination of cayenne pepper and paprika. The shrimp turned out great and the sauce was flavorful. I'll definitely be making this again.
