Tips from the Pillsbury Kitchens

  • tip 1
    This delicious dish can be made up to four hours ahead of time. Prepare the shrimp, lime juice mixture and chile aïoli ahead. Cover and refrigerate. Just before serving, brush the lime juice mixture on the shrimp, then broil. Serve the shrimp with the chile aïoli as directed.
