Do you sometimes want to try something new in your favorite restaurant? However, just at the moment you place the order, you decide to order the one that you had in the past because you crave it badly.

At the same time, in the back of your head, you tell yourself, "I will try the new dish next time." Then, when you go back the next time, the restaurant just changed their menu. So, you don't have any opportunity to try that "new" dish.

Does this sound familiar? This was exactly how it happened with this Outback Steakhouse buffalo shrimp side dish. That inspired me to create this recipe.

TIPS & TRICKS

You can double this recipe easily.  Do remember that if you double the quantity, it will take longer time to prepare the shrimp by shelling every piece of it. 

It may also take longer for the shrimp to be cooked because the more shrimp are in the same skillet, the longer it takes to heat it up.
