RECIPE NOTES

• I prefer the 21-30 size shrimp, but you can use your favorite size.
• You can cook the shrimp in batches, if needed. Just make sure not to overcook your shrimp!
• You can adjust the amount of jalapeño, and whether you use seeds, to control the amount of heat here.
• The fresh cilantro and lime juice really make this dish pop - don’t skip them!
• This goes great over rice or quinoa, or in tacos or wraps.
