Peppered Shrimp Recipe
This is so incredible. I serve it over pesto fettucini with a dinner salad. It is always gobbled right up. Hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

Wow, one of best shrimp dishes I've had. I peeled the shrimp first and then followed through with this great recipe and put on cooked rice. It was absolutely delicious; easy, spicy, love all the pepper, shrimp turned out perfect; no mush about them. Recommend to anyone!
