About

The jerk shrimp is scorchingly hot but you cool down immediately with the contrast of the soured cream mixture and the tangy salsa. The recipe was developed by Joseph Lamarca, an American chef who won an international jerk recipe competition for it. Dip the shrimp into the cream and then into the salsa, getting a bit of everything on your fork with each bite. I promise the shrimp will simply vanish!
