This was our dinner tonight and it was absolutely delicious! Served with green beans and rice and it not only looked beautiful plated but tasted divine. This will definitely be on the menu again. Once again Julia, thank you for an amazing recipe!
Della-Marie, thank you for such a wonderful and positive comment and Happy Holidays! 🙂 Glad you enjoyed this - your choice of side dishes is excellent!
Please only buy fresh local to US shrimp ! It makes a difference.
I loved the garlic shrimp recipe. Can I make it the day before to use as an appetizer? How would I reheat and would the shrimp become tough? Thank u
Christine
You can make it a day before. Keep it refrigerated in an air-tight container. I would reheat the shrimp on a low heat in a skillet on the stove-top, constantly stirring, for about 5 minutes.
This looks so great! Dijon mustard is so delicious and one of my favorite ingredients to add to a dish. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you, Billy!
