Quick Moroccan Shrimp Skillet image

When my niece was attending West Point, she was sent to Morocco for five months. I threw her a going-away party with Moroccan decorations, costumes and cuisine, including this saucy shrimp dish. Whenever I make it now, I think of her and I smile. -Barbara Lento, Houston, Pennsylvania

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. The shrimp were cooked perfectly and the sauce was very flavorful. I would recommend using less cayenne pepper if you don't like spicy food.
