For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a splash of lemon juice to the sauce during the last few minutes of cooking. Adjust the amount of cayenne pepper to your preference for spiciness. A dash of red pepper flakes can also be used. Ensure the shrimp are fully defrosted and patted dry before cooking to achieve the best sear. Fresh basil is highly recommended, but in a pinch, 1 teaspoon of dried basil can be substituted. Serve with a sprinkle of fresh parsley for an added touch of freshness.
