    This recipe was so easy and delicious! My family loved it, and it's definitely going into our regular rotation.

    The sauce was a little too sweet for my taste, so I reduced the brown sugar slightly. Otherwise, it was perfect!

    I was a bit skeptical about using coconut aminos, but it gave the shrimp such a great flavor. Will definitely make again!
