Tonight's dinner included some shrimp from Edisto my parents brought back to us from their weekend at the beach. I found a good way to cook them:
It was called " Louis Lagarde" Shrimp. And I am impressed with my recipe. Apparently he was a famous colonel who wrote a book about Gunshot Injuries back in the day. So maybe it will make ya shot someone it is so spicy. Actually it was pretty damn spicy (had cayenne pepper) in it. I found it in my 'Pon Top Edisto cookbook I have and it was good with some french bread (to sop up ya sauce with) and some cheese grits and some roasted green beans (my new favorite...I could eat them EVERY night!!!!)
Here are what the leftovers look like:
