I have been feeling the Aloha vibes lately and was inspired to recreate my garlic shrimp recipe. If you’ve been to Hawaii, you know what I am talking about! Garlic shrimp is a popular dish that is served in Oahu. You can find plenty of food trucks serving this dish at the North Shore. This garlic shrimp dish is so ono. It will definitely take you back to that time you had this dish. The shrimp was so succulent and juicy. You can also taste the sweetness of the garlic. I like serving this with a side of Jasmine rice, which soaks up the garlic butter goodness. Now, doesn’t that make you want to make this dish! This dish broke da mouth! I guarantee you will LOVE this dish!
