Krazy Kitchen Mom Tips
- It’s important to devein shrimp before using it in any recipe.
- If you do not know how to devein shrimp or choose not to, simply ask the fishmonger at the market to remove it for you or buy already deveined shrimp.
- I always recommend using freshly squeezed juices but this recipe is fine using bottled orange juice without pulp.
- I prefer to serve this shrimp with tails on because it looks nicer, but it’s fine to remove them before cooking.
