I made this with 1lb. mahi mahi instead of shrimp and made it into fish tacos by putting them in flour tortillas and serving them with lettuce, tomato, and lite sour cream. They were so flavorful!! Everyone loved them at my dinner party! Oh, I also replaced cayenne w/ red pepper flakes. YUM!! - 5/2/10

These shrimp were great and soooo easy! :)I had the shrimp on crunchy taco shells with lettuce, chopped tomatoes, and a little bit of 2% shredded cheese with salsa verde on top. On the side I made a mixture of corn, black beans, lime juice, and cilantro.YUM! I will DEFINITELY be making this again!!! - 2/1/10

This is SO good! I cut the cayenne pepper down to 1/8 and it's still spicy but I love it! I also add the seasoning in at the end after the shrimp is cooked, because I pull my toddler's out right before the seasoning, turns out great! Wonderful recipe, we've already made it 3 times!! Thanks! - 4/12/10

This was SOOO good. I marinated the shrimp in all ingredients except the olive oil for 1 hour. Served on whole wheat tortillas with a homemade salsa. Thumbs up from the entire household. I'm definitely going to make a big batch of the seasoning ahead of time so that I can make this dish regularly. - 8/19/09

For how quick and easy this recipe is, it really packs in the flavor!! As someone else mentioned, it's easy to make a bigger batch of the seasoning and save in a cupboard. I ommitted the salt and used chili powder instead of cayenne pepper. Served with asparagus spears and cherry tomatoes.Yummy!!! - 1/3/09

I would recommend inputting each ingredient separately to get a more accurate calorie count. Also cut the cayenne in half. The mix of the cayenne and garlic made both my boyfriend and I very gassy and bloated. Not a good pre-work out meal. I will try again, but cut down on the cayenne. Very Tasty! - 2/27/08

I am eating this as I type. It is a really tasty recipe, and yes, spicy! I cut the recipe in half to get one serving. The only thing I did differently was to add just a little bit of pineapple juice to the pan, just enough to stop things from sticking. Island rice & green beans on the side. Love It! - 7/12/12

This was delicious! I marinated the shrimp in some fresh lime juice for around 10 mins. before cooking. I used red pepper flakes in place of the cayenne. I also waited until the shrimp were done cooking before I squeezed the lime juice over them. Thank you for sharing this recipe. Will make again. - 4/13/11

SOOO good! Did the taco thing w/spinach, tomatoes, diced red onion, cheese, avocado & sour cream & the flavor was awesome! I liked how warm it was so wouldn't change anything (except a little less salt since it won't be missed). YOWZA! This spice blend would go great with fish & chicken as well. - 3/29/11
