SUYA SHRIMP RECIPE | OVEN BAKED PRAWNS

If you've followed me for a long time you know I love Suya! See my Suya Scotch Eggs, Suya Wrap and Yaji Curry recipes! LOL. I was staring at some Shrimp I bought the other day and thinking...e go make sense if this thing taste like Suya sha and I got to cooking! I went to the Mallam closest to me and bought some Suya for N400 then requested for Suya Spice Mix for N1000...I had to buy Suya because most of them will not like to sell that Suya mix alone. I got home and in less that 30 minutes Suya Shrimp happened...my husband looked at me and said..."you've done it!" ha ha ha! Now it is time for YOU to do it! They are yummy, easy to prepare and oven baked, as in fitfam friendly! Ps. Click HERE to SUBSCRIBE so that all my recipes come straight to your inbox!
