Tips:

  • To devein the shrimp, use a sharp knife to make a shallow cut along the back of the shrimp, from the head to the tail. Remove the vein, which is a thin, dark line, with the tip of the knife.
  • If you don't have time to marinate the shrimp for 30 minutes, you can let them marinate for a shorter amount of time. However, the longer you marinate them, the more flavorful they will be.
  • When cooking the shrimp, be careful not to overcook them. Shrimp are very delicate and can easily become tough if they are cooked for too long.
  • Serve the shrimp with your favorite sides, such as rice, vegetables, or salad.
