Shrimp in Lemon Garlic Chili Sauce image

This is THE BEST shrimp recipe, I swear. This is "finger food" -- you'll peel and eat the shrimp at the table, so provide one or more bowls to discard the shells and have plenty of napkins on hand. You'll want to serve this with lots of crusty bread to sop up the absolutely amazing sauce. ENJOY! Note: prep time does not include time to marinate shrimp.
