Notes
A cast iron skillet is perfect for cooking these shrimp, or use a heavy bottomed pan.
Space the shrimp out, so they don't touch and they cook evenly.
Shrimp will turn to an opaque pink, when they are cooked. If the shrimp curl up into little O shapes they're overcooked. Perfectly cooked shrimp should be a C in shape.
The best way to defrost frozen shrimp is in a colander in the fridge overnight.
Allow your shrimp to marinate for at least an hour.
Go for freshly squeezed lime juice, for the best flavor.
Add some chili flakes for a pop of spiciness.
