SHRIMP MOZAMBIQUE

Shrimp Mozambique image

This shrimp Mozambique recipe was passed down from my grandma and is frequently made in our Portuguese culture. Variations include adding other seafood, such as clams, mussels or scallops. I've also made it with chicken since my kids will not eat seafood. -Christina Souza, Brooksville, Florida
