Ten Stars!! Oh my goodness.. This was out of this world delicious. Next time I'm going to double the sauce...even triple the sauce. The heat of the peppers simmered in the sauce was just what my taste buds needed. I served this over rice and I wish I had made more. I used jumbo shrimp (U16) and sliced them in half down the back. A little dab of butter on the rice sweetened things up a bit. Oh wow.. this is sooo good. Thank you Iowahorse and Crazy John. Next time I'll have a loaf of French bread handy to sop up the sauce.
