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 :), The store didn’t have jumbo shrimp so I just got whatever they had but it still worked great Also served it over pasta!, I always think of breaded and fried when I think of coconut shrimp but this is a nice change up The sauce is creamy and delicious and the shrimp is cooked perfectly with this method I loved it!
