We’re back with another round of Come Cook With Us sponsored by Peterborough Mitsubishi! Dan and I are also joined again by Lorianne Stenson, the owner of Algonquin Catering.
This series has been so fun! For our third time cooking, we’re making Crispy Sweet & Spicy Shrimp with Moroccan Couscous. This recipe can also be made with chicken instead of shrimp.
