Spicy Shrimp Recipe.
Forget about the watery cocktail sauce you get in the middle of store-bought shrimp rings: this spicy marinade adds a much bigger flavor. It’s got coconut aminos and healthy cooking fats for a savory base, Sriracha and chili powder for heat, and an optional spoonful of honey if you like your spice with a little sugar.
