Chili-Lime Shrimp

Shrimp gets the chili treatment, yielding a briny seafood with a pleasant kick.

This dish may seem intimidating, but it is easy elegance. The seafood does have a little kick, but not enough to mask the briny taste. Delicious as an appetizer, or serve over angel-hair pasta and top with fresh pineapple.
