Delicious, tasty shrimp dish, easy to put together. I did use large raw shrimp which worked great and were done in the 30 minutes, also used vermouth instead of sherry as was out of sherry. I will be making it again as it is a great, tasty, easy dish to serve to guest. Thank you so much KelBel for posting the recipe.

My house smelled wonderful while this cooked! I used raw shrimp as the other reviewer had done, and it was perfect in 30 minutes. My artichokes were only 14 ounces, so I made up for the difference in fresh mushrooms! LOVED the flavor the sherry added ~ Made for Let's P-A-R-T-Y 2011.
