For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of smoked paprika to the marinade. Adjust the amount of hot pepper sauce to your preference. Start with a small amount and taste as you go. Make sure the shrimp are completely cooled before adding them to the marinade to prevent the marinade from becoming diluted. Serve with crusty bread or crackers for dipping.
