Notes: This is a variation of my Mom's recipe. I added the cilantro, substituted green onions for red and of course I added the Coleman's. A staple of De Chantal Christmas Parties, Lunch Angel Dinners and Teacher Happy Hours, these shrimp are a hit, even with those who don't normally like spicy foods.
I've given this recipe to others who've said their results were good but not as good as mine. The key to my success (and for every recipe for that matter) is to taste as you go to make sure you've got it the way you like it.
Add more salt, red pepper or Coleman's if needed. The dressing should be hot enough to know the red pepper's there and mustardly enough to just awaken your sinuses.
