Notes

  • For the sauce: I like to double the sauce portion of the recipe and reserve half for drizzling over the rice. 
  • Maple syrup: The slaw is the very best when you use maple syrup but make sure to use pure maple syrup - not maple flavored breakfast syrup. If you don't have pure maple syrup, you can substitute honey.

  • Tails on or off: Leaving the tails on is completely optional and something I do when I want a pretty presentation. Most of the time I remove the tails before beginning the recipe. 
  • Using frozen shrimp: If you are using frozen shrimp, be sure to thaw first, then give the shrimp a gentle rinse in cold water and pat dry with paper towels before beginning the recipe.
