Flambe presentation makes any meal presentation special and dramatic. This recipe is sure to wow your guests and please their palates, as well. The recipe is from one of the finest restaurants in Monterey, California called the Sardine Factory. Dining at this wonderful restaurant on Cannery Row, one can almost feel the presence of Ernest Hemingway and other historical people who once lived and worked here.

CARIBBEAN SHRIMP IN LIME SAUCE, FLAMBEED WITH RUM



Caribbean Shrimp in Lime Sauce, Flambeed With Rum image

Recipe from Spring/99 issue of Gusto Magazine, donated by Daniel et Daniel Catering, Toronto. I prepared this dish for a "Caribbean Theme", birthday barbecue for 20 guests, by adjusting the recipe, times 5. It worked very well, and was a popular dish. Because the recipe was increased, times five, it had to be cooked in two batches, using two skillets at a time, on the barbecue. Flambe on a barbecue presents a small challenge but it can be done. There were no leftovers
