Sarandeado Shrimp or Camarones Sarandeados is a popular and quite delicious dish. There are many variations of this sauce depending on who is preparing it and where it is prepared.
Today I will share my recipe that I always prepare when I am home and there is a craving for this dish. Shrimp are low in calories, provide vitamins such as selenium and B12 and do not take long to cook, resulting in a perfect option for a healthy dish.
Enjoy!
