Spicy Sriracha Glazed Shrimp Bowls
A deliciously spicy way to eat dinner in under 30 minutes.
My family and I devoured this dinner. The shrimp was so good and all the rest of the simple ingredients complimented them so well. We love to serve shrimp because its a quick cook time and they are high in protein. I try to buy mine wild and deveined to cut back on prep time.
