PAPPASITO'S BROCHETTE SHRIMP - COPYCAT RECIPE



Pappasito's Brochette Shrimp - Copycat Recipe image

When I was in college, I worked at Pappasito's as a waitress. I LOVED their brochette shrimp and I asked the cook for the recipe. He didn't give me the exact measurements, but he did give me the list of ingredients. I went home and played around with the quantities of the ingredeints and came up with what I think is very close to the real thing!
