Yum!! I made this last night, omitting the mushrooms. And used a little sweet onion in place of the shallots. DD inhaled it! Served with some basmati rice. Excellent!! Thanks for sharing.

This was delicious. I had to make it using what I had on hand so I did not add mushrooms and I used onion instead of shallot, but it was still wonderful! I made this dish for 2 of us and there was not one shrimp left! Thanks!

Fabulous shrimp! I let the mushrooms get nice and brown to really bring out the flavor. The cream sauce on this is just wonderful! Great flavor. We had this with a baked potato and salad. Great dinner!! Thanks Julesong, this will be a regular!
