Thai Lemon Coconut Shrimp

I really love shrimp and when you lve something you really can´t settle for a lesser version of it. So when I make shrimp I make jumbo size shrimp. They are juicier, crunch bite hard to get with smaller shrimp and the flavor is just better.  Now this is a Thai influenced recipe. But it reminds me so much of so many Caribbean Dishes that it deserves an honorable mention on my list of Caribbean Foods. It has all the ingredients and the The lemon and coconut milk added an amazing flavour and aroma and of course this dish would not be complete without my favorite herb, cilantro. This is a simple and  easy way to make a shrimp recipe and impress almost anyone!!! Enjoy

Step #1 CLEANING
