Ingredients:
1 lb. large shrimp, shelled and cleaned (can add some scallops too)
1/2 cup Olive Oil
1-2 Tbsp butter or margarine
1/2 cup Chile Sauce
1/4 cup Worcestershire Sauce
1 lemon thinly sliced
Juice of 1 Lemon
4 cloves garlic - minced
2-3 Tbsp minced parsley
2 tsp Paprika
2 tsp dried Oregano
3 tsp Cayenne Pepper
1 t sp Tabasco
2 Tbsp Liquid Smoke

Clean the shrimp and pat dry. Spread them out in a shallow pan. Combine all the other ingredients in a saucepan over low heat. Let simmer for 10 minutes then pour over the shrimp. Mix well and refrigerate for 2-3 hours.

Preheat the oven to 300 degrees and bake uncovered for 25 minutes, turning them at least once. The shrimp are served over or with white rice...plenty of French Bread for dipping in the sauce...and a LARGE pitcher of ice water should be close at hand.

Comments: "The more sauce the better... I often double the sauce recipe so there's plenty of extra for the rice, and the next day too."

SHRIMP CREOLE

Saute a chopped onion and a crushed clove of garlic in a skillet (one that has a lid if possible!)
Add a chopped green pepper.
Once the pepper is soft, add a can of tomatoes, either diced, or use the whole ones and just crush them with your hand as you add each one to the skillet. Try not to add too much of the tomato juice, just about half of it is enough for your sauce.
Add some chili pepper flakes, as much as you like (you said you like spicy, so do as you please!)
Simmer on med-low for about 10 minutes.
Add your shrimp on the surface of the sauce and cover the skillet. Continue simmering another 4-5 minutes, depending how big your shrimp are. When they're pink all the way through, you're good to go.
Serve over rice.

OK, get a pot and put a little olive oil in it (1 Tbsp) and a lot of minced garlic. Saute for a couple minutes and add 1 cup basmati rice. Stir to coat. Add 1 Tbsp. curry powder and stir to mix for a minute or two. Add 2 cups chicken stock, bring to a boil, cover, reduce to simmer and cook for 20 minutes or so. During the last 5 minutes, toss in some shrimp, as much as you like and keep covered. Garnish with chopped cilantro and green onions.

Enjoy!
