These zippy shrimp bring a lot of pizazz to the table. Use as much or as little cayenne pepper as you'd like, depending on your family's tastes. We love ours served alongside rice pilaf. &mdash;Donna Thomason, El Paso, Texas

Great recipe! Quick and delicious. Add a salad and some rice, and you've got a whole meal.

This was delicious!  I followed the recipe exactly except I left out the nutmeg as I had none.  It didn't make a lick of difference as this was just delicious and super fast to put together.

tasty and so easy i was embarrassed by the compliments!

Easy to prepare with ingredients that I have on hand! I went easy on the cayenne since a little heat goes along way for my family.

Easy to prepare and lip smacking good! I followed the recipe exactly using the full 1/4 tsp of cayenne because we like spicy. I used larger shrimp and found that I needed to add about 1 minute to the cooking time. I will make these again and again. Lynne, TOH Volunteer Field Editor

made this recipe to complement a take on “Three Sister's Succotash”...corn, zucchini,
