Notes
Here are some things I’ve learned about making this recipe. It’s easier to chop the shrimp frozen however the juices don’t soak in as well. The best thing is to eat some the first day and then it always tastes better the second day. I love to use extra lemon and salt in this recipe so be liberal with what makes sense to you. It’s always fun to place it in something fun like this bowl. This recipe is such a great meal to have no matter what you are doing in the summer.
