Shrimp Mick Jagger image

I first saw this recipe printed in The New York Daily News in 1988, where it was excerpted from a book called Rock 'n' Roll Cuisine. The recipe was created by Byron Ayanoglu, who was Mick Jagger's private chef. The bio on Amazon reads" Byron Ayanoglu, known as "food-god" among his Hollywood fans, has written fifteen food-related books, including cookbooks, novels and memoirs. He has worked as food-journalist (restaurant reviewer/cuisine commentator/culinary traveling) for thirty years, and eaten his way around the globe. He has always shared his prandial pleasures with his readers if not necessarily his food. He has worked as private chef to the famous (Mick Jagger; Robert De Niro) and the powerful (the Annenberg family) and has been set-caterer to great films (Sergio Leoni's Once Upon A Time in America). Born in Istanbul he grew up in Canada but never quite got used to the winters of his adopted land." I would love to find more of his recipes!
