This is one of the few Cuban dishes that is a little spicy, rather, it is redolent with garlic and tomatoes and the succulent flavor of fresh-caught shrimp. As all Cuban favorites, it is served with white rice and either ripe or green plantains. Add a green salad and garnish with some cilantro and you're good to go. Delicious! Ingredients:
