Easy to make. Okay flavors.
Valerie411Overall, nice flavors. I'd make this again but increase the shrimp and/or decrease the blackening spices. I'd also add some shredded parmesan and maybe some pickled peppers, carrots, or other veggies.
jdriemeyerDamn! This recipe was incredible! We cut back on the cayenne pepper to just a pinch b/c we're not huge on heat, but other than that, no changes! (Oh wait, we also sautéed the red onion & drizzled with reduction of balsamic for an added sweetness to the dish. Everyone was a huge fan!)
tedraleonardI didnt even make it to my seat before finishing my bowl and going back for seconds. To give the dressing an extra flavor boost skip adding the water or olive oil. Instead, use the water/season mix left in the bottom of the pan after cooking the shrimp and asparagus.
