Excellent, simple and a great new spin!

I used panko instead of fresh breadcrumbs and added seasoning to the breadcrumbs. Next time I’ll prepare without the breadcrumbs. I also served it over Mexican rice instead of pasta noodles.
Scott Thompson
Delicious. We absolutely love it – especially the cilantro/lime combo
Hannah Haynes
It was very tasty and I got compliments but I felt the was a little to much oil
Michelle Lee
Delicious and so easy. I may try air frying next time for a more crispy breading. Spices and lime make this amazing.
Lisa Jacobson
Instant hit! I doubled the cayenne pepper for a little extra kick. Serve with angel hair pasta with light oil for a perfect meal.

My husband and I both really liked this recipe. I used Adobo seasoning and squeeze lime juice because that was what I had on hand. I thought the seasoning was really good and fresh lime juice would be great. We are adding it to the repertoire.

2.8.20 The shrimp were cooked perfectly at 15 minutes. Served over spaghetti, so I was longing for a little more sauce, so next time, I’ll probably just serve the pasta as a side dish with olive oil, salt, pepper, and a sprinkle of red pepper flakes. This is easy enough for a weeknight dinner, but I’d serve to company, as well. Served with a caesar salad and toasted garlic bread. Thanks for sharing your recipe.
