Camarones Miramar

On a trip to Sayulita Mexico we got a recipe for Camarones con Cabezas from the owners of a little beach bar called Bar Miramar. The dish gets a lot of flavor from the shrimp heads cooking in wine and oil. We came up with a version of this recipe that is easy to make and packed with deliciousness. We named it Camarones Miramar to honor the source and remember the bar.
