These were fantastic. The shrimp were seasoned to perfection and the dipping sauce was delicious. My husband loved them - I will definately make these again.

The rosemary on the shrimp and the roasted garlic in the dipping sauce are a great combination. I plan to use the leftover shrimp to make shrimp quesadillas. I followed the recipe except I replaced the chives with scallions.

I made these for the first family party I've ever hosted and they were very easy, delicious, impressive looking, flavorful.....and popular! The accompanying aoli sauce made a lot more sauce than was needed, so it was great to use that leftover on various dishes throughout the following week. Being a rural family, no one had ever served shrimp at a family party, so everyone was impressed by my cooking ability. Thanks for the great recipe!
