Really yummy! I did add a good amount of red pepper flakes for kick, a bit of season salt and a bit of old bay seasoning. I also forgot to add the flour slurry at the end ( I was having to cook from memory as my computer had just crashed) so it was not super thick, but it was still great and yhe DH RAVED about it =)
