This was totally delicious! The first time I made the recipe as written, and it was so delicious and immediately inhaled by our guests. The second time I decided to make a little more sauce and just added cream to it...it was already pretty indulgent and a little cream couldn't hurt! I parcooked the shrimp, then later made the sauce and nestled the butterflied shimp into the sauce with their tails up in the air, heated it through in the oven and served it immediately. It was nice to have a beautiful dish I could make in advance and serve when I was ready. Again, it was inhaled. So with guests coming again this week, I'll be making it again, but this time I'll make even more sauce and serve it with either rice or orzo and a simple salad. It'll be the perfect dinner! Thank you Boonyas mom!

I am a working mom with 2 kids (21 & 11).I am always looking for something quick & easy that uses fresh healthy ingredients. As a family we try and stay away from processed foods and anything containing high frutose corn syrup.
