Cook until the shrimp turns pink and opaque, and the sauce has reduced and thickened, about 15 to 20 minutes. Be careful not to overcook the shrimp. (20 minutes)
For a richer flavor, consider using homemade chicken stock instead of a bouillon cube.
Adjust the amount of hot pepper sauce to your preference. Start with a smaller amount and add more to taste.
Serve the shrimp immediately over rice, pasta, or crusty bread to soak up the delicious sauce.
A squeeze of fresh lemon juice at the end brightens the flavors.
Consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes for extra heat.
