This is kinda like etouffee..sort of. I thought it was delish sounding when I heard about it. I have tweaked it a bit from the original, since I hate hard-boiled eggs and didn't have any cooking sherry. I replaced the sherry with some Old Bay (which I have just discovered in '05) and didn't replace those nasty eggs with anything. The recipe calls for a pound of tomatoes. Since I usually make this in the fall/winter, I use DM's home-canned tomatoes in some juice. I really like this - some Southern comfort food at its best.

I'm going to try making this recipe with different types of seafood, like crab or crawfish.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my shrimp bake turned out really dry. I think I might have overcooked the shrimp.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover shrimp. I had some cooked shrimp in the fridge and this was the perfect way to use them up.

Overall, I thought this recipe was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

I love the idea of this recipe, but I found it to be a bit too time-consuming. I'll probably look for a simpler shrimp bake recipe next time.

This recipe is a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I'll probably use less cayenne pepper next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and my shrimp bake turned out bland. I think I'll add more spices next time.
