When you don't feel like cooking, but you want to serve something yummy to your guests, try this easy recipe!

Harissa is a classic spread used in the middle east. It's made from crushed peppers, olive oil, garlic and salt. Our 2 favorites are the traditional harissa, which really packs a punch, and the sweet pepper harissa which is predominantly sweet red peppers, but with a kick.

This dish takes about 10 minutes to prepare and it should chill for a half hour before serving. Don't make it too far in advance, since the citrus in the mixture will "cook" the shrimp.
