"This easy dish of succulent shrimp simmered in a spicy coconut sauce is fragrant and delicious! It's quick to make, and perfect for a busy weeknight meal, or special enough for to serve to guests on the weekend. Look for canned coconut milk (the unsweetened juice of coconut meat) in the Asian section of your supermarket. Serve this dish over jasmine rice or quinoa...."
