This is a favourite with friends and family and I usually have to make much more than a single recipe calls for. Wonderful for that 'something special' needed for the holidays.

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

This recipe was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I think that's because I used too much cayenne pepper. Next time I'll use less.

The shrimp were a bit overcooked for my taste, but the sauce was delicious. I'll definitely try this recipe again and cook the shrimp for a shorter amount of time.
