Sabrina’s Drunken Shrimp Recipe
Drunken Shrimp is a tasty, easy meal that you can make in one pan with a lipsmacking buttery sauce in under 20 minutes. The cooking method is pretty simple, but it does take a few steps because you prepare the shrimp, tomatoes, and sauce separately before combining them. But each piece only takes a few minutes, and it’s all done on the stovetop in one pan. The combination of savory, tangy, and spicy flavors in the creamy sauce make this recipe irresistible. It’s so good you’ll want to drink the sauce right out of the bowl. That’s why I love serving it with a piece of crust bread to soak up every last drop.
