Jamaican Shrimp

From grifter1 17 years ago

Jamaican street food recipe... forgot where I found it, but too good not to share. They are spicy though, watch out.

Mix all ingredients except shrimp in large pot, bring to a boil and then reduce heat and simmer (covered) for 20 minutes
Remove pot from heat and stir in shrimp, making sure they're all covered with the liquid. Let the pot cool for about an hour uncovered, then serve with a little of the cooking liquid

Can't wait to try these. I have always brined my shrimp before cooking. I think this method of cooking will be great and you won't end up with flabby overcooked shrimp. I think I'll start with two habanero. Maybe add a sliced lemon too.
I won't be able to share these with the family. They don't do spicy well.
