Shrimp Mozambique, Camarao

Features:
  • Spicy
Cuisine:

    My wife really enjoyed it, and that is how I evaluate most recipes. Basically a zesty shrimp scampi.

    There are a few notes that you need to be aware of. First, the ingredients call for coriander or flat leaf parsley but the instructions ask for cllantro. used the parsley but next time I would go for the cilantro for more flavor. Not wrong since they are the same but may confuse some. Also, the instructions leave off the salt and pepper. I don't think it is important when you do the salt, as long as you remember. As for the white pepper, I find that best reserved for near the end. Also, used beer this time but I am very curious to see what the red wine does.

We used red wine (not beer) and served it with with rice I think this recipe made a generous 4 servings if served with rice (my boyfriend disagrees he thinks it made 2 servings, but that’s because it’s hard to stop eating it) It was a very good use of my precious saffron threads 🙂 Thanks for posting!
