Okay so here is a shrimp marinade. It kind of is calling for the shrimp to be grilled BUT THAT IS FLEXIBLE if it is not an important thing to you. (It just speaks to me in a grilled way.) Grilled shrimp makes me think of warm weather with our friends the summer we were newlyweds after we got married. On the topic of shrimp, I am a little obsessive about shrimp being well cleaned. I kind of have to do it in house because most restaurants don’t do it very well.
So I don’t order it at restaurants. Once you notice it’s hard to unnotice and go back.
