Trader Joe's Thai Green Chili Shrimp - Dash Of Mandi

I get so giddy when Trader Joe’s [3] comes out with a new sauce. This Thai style green chili sauce immediately caught my eye! It’s brand new. It’s a tiny bit spicy with garlic, shallot, lemon grass and Thai lime leaves. I combined it with some coconut cream to make the most comforting and delicious Thai style sauce. I served mine with shrimp and sliced mini peppers. I love the red Argentine shrimp from Trader Joe’s. They almost taste like lobster!

This dish is the perfect spring transitional recipe. It’s still warm and cozy. But, it’s very light and fresh. To make into more of a meal, I suggest serving it over some rice. Also, adding more veggies is a great way to make it more filling!
