Notes
If you plan to serve cilantro spiced shrimp with broccoli, you should serve it immediately. The flavors of the marinade will mellow after it sits. However, if you're making a large portion of this recipe, you can freeze it and reheat it later. You can also store the leftovers for up to two days. A few hours before serving, you can let the shrimp marinate, start cooking the buckwheat.
