Notes
How I’ve ruined this dishThis is a very simple and quick dish to prepare, but I have screwed it up by overcooking the shrimp. Shrimp only takes 5 to 8 minutes when prepared like this so it’s easy to overcook them. Believe me, there is a world of difference between plump, tender and succulent properly cooked shrimp and hard, rubbery overcooked shrimp.What about LeftoversLeftovers can be stored in the fridge for 3 to 5 days if kept in an airtight container. To reheat, toss them into a skillet and reheat over medium-high heat until warned through-probably about 5 minutes. Be careful when reheating that you don’t overcook the shrimp. What can I substitute for the shrimpTry some cubed chicken breasts in lieu of the shrimp. You’ll have to saute them a little longer-say 10 minutes before you add the Cajun Cane Glaze and green onions. Optional ingredientsToss in some pineapple chunks with the yellow onions and bell peppers. This addition steers the dish a little to the east.
