Receta Key Lime Marinated Shrimps Wrapped in Lettuce Leaves with Citrus Crème
This is my version of those lettuce wrapped chicken/beef dishes. Mine is done with shrimps, marinated in fresh key lime juice and wrapped in lettuce from the farmer's market. The citrus cream adds enough acid to enhance the flavor and it all just screams summer!
