This was a terrible recipe. The shrimp were overcooked and the sauce was too spicy. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

This recipe is a waste of time and money. The shrimp were not fresh and the sauce was bland. I would not make this again.

This was the worst shrimp dish I have ever had. The shrimp were dry and tough, and the sauce was watery and tasteless. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

The shrimp were a bit overcooked, but the sauce was delicious. I would make this again, but I would cook the shrimp for a shorter amount of time.

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste, but it was still good. I would make it again, but I would use less chili pepper.
