Chef Lin’s Coconut Shrimp,This is a wonderful sweet and creamy shrimp dish. It makes a great appetizer for a seafood dinner of steamed crab legs and lobster. I (Bird) created this recipe (that I was Inspired by) from a buffet item at Chef Lin’s Chinese Buffet in Chattanooga, TN. At Chef Lin’s I would grab this up by the bowlful. :),Try Pastis or Pernod liquor instead of Amaretto. Delicious!,The store didn’t have jumbo shrimp so I just got whatever they had but it still worked great. Also served it over pasta!
