Reviews
I made this following the recipe as is except didn’t have coriander and substituted mushrooms instead of celery. It was very tasty and good way to cook shrimp. The sauce was a bit runny, next time I will use corn starch to thicken. Overall a good recipe.
Great lemon shrimp recipe. I did not have celery and substituted thyme for the ground coriander. I used sherry for the wine and omitted the Worcestershire sauce. I did some butter when I added the shrimp to cook, but probably didn’t need to with the lemon juice. I would add another clove or two of garlic as I love the lemon garlic combination. Will definitely make again!
Made as written and this turned out good. There are a lot of flavors going on but they all mixed nicely. I’d probably use butter next time because it was a little greasy as is but overall a good recipe.
