These shrimp were a bit too greasy for my taste. I think I'll try using less oil next time.

I've made this recipe several times now, and it's always a winner. The shrimp are always crispy and juicy, and the flavor is out of this world. I love that I can use frozen shrimp, which makes it a really convenient meal.
