Twist Thai

I picked up some fairly large shrimp (21-24 count) for a good price and was trying to figure out something to do with them. Well, now that I know how good they are, I'll surely be picking some more up. I haven't had a shrimp that actually had a natural sweetness to it in ages. For tonight's dinner, I made Peanut Thai Noodles. I added a few slivers of chicken as well.

The last time I made Peanut Thai Sauce it was very, well… peanuty. Looking back on it now, tonight's recipe is pretty similar, only substituting tamarind for lime juice and adding a bit more coconut milk. The difference between last time and now is how it was used. I don't think that peanut Thai sauce makes a very good dipping sauce, but it works very good with noodles. I made way too much for myself, but I definitely tried my hardest to eat it all.
