The reviewer gave this recipe 4 stars. This recipe averages a 4.31 star rating.
Reviewed: Jul. 9, 2008
I'd so love to give this dish five stars as it was a tremendous hit at a party this weekend, but the two cups of wine and the amount of butter is the only thing stopping me. I used half the butter suggested, melted it in a pan and then added in my fresh bread crumbs to saute a bit. Additional seasonings, including an Italian blend helped to jazz up the crumbs. Because I love cooking with sherry and others had recommended it, I used that in lieu of the white wine. I sprayed my casserole dish with PAM and only used a half cup, if that, of sherry. When the shrimp were just about done, I turned on the broiler to brown and crisp up the topping. As I said, everyone loved this dish and with these few changes it will certainly warrant a repeat performance. Thank you so much Jenne!

Delicious and bad for you. I love it...I did cut the amount of shrimp, butter, and used Italian seasoned bread crumbs it was delicious and easy. I'll definitely make it again. Thanks for sharing.

Very good recipe. Used only 1 cup of white wine and followed the rest as written. Good recipe to assemble early and then put in oven as guest arrive for a GREAT appetizer.

This dish was too rich for my liking, which isn't a huge criticism for the recipe in general, but it just didn't suit my taste. I cut the butter to 1/3 of a cup and cut down on the wine to 1 1/2 cup, but it was still too much. The flavors were good, so it you are looking for a decadent and sinful dish, I guess this will suit your needs.

This recipe as written is not worth five stars but with some simple additions it can be. Toast the bread crumbs first. Texture is better. Add less white wine (I recommend sherry) and lemon juice! Fresh lemon juice. Just squeeze half a lemon over the shrimp right before you serve it.

Pretty good recipe, I had a few changes though. I used sherry in stead of white wine, increased the garlic and cut down on everything except the butter & bread crumbs. It resembled what I ususally recieve in nicer restaurants, so I was impressed.

I really liked this, but I did cut back on almost everything. I used half the butter and wine amount and didn't use any cayanne. (Just don't like it). We added more garlic and it smells wonderful We ate it on top of warm bagette bread. Thanks for the post.

The first time I made this recipe I made it with the white wine and I did not like the flavor. The next time I made it I used water in place of the wine and I loved it. Also I omitted the cayenne pepper and added just a little more garlic. Wonderful!

TOO MUCH WINE! We cut back to a scosh over 1 cup and that was plenty for 1.5# of medium Tiger prawns. Also cut back on the butter & bread crumbs with no ill effects. The aroma, flavor and ease will make this a yearly tradition on New Year's Day! There were 5 adults and no leftovers.

Delicious, but I used only half the butter called for in the recipe. Also I used dry bread crumbs instead of fresh.

This recipe is great and very easy. It is great with potatoes sliced very thin and baked in the oven. Use the potatoes to soak up the extra garlic and bread crumbs.

More shrimp is definitely needed with the amounts listed for the other ingredients.

This was delicious to my husband and me, but the kids did not like the wine flavor. I used packaged bread crumbs and cut it to 1 1/2 cups. I definitely will make it again (when the kids are away). I took some to work, and everyone asked for the recipe. just WONDERFUL!
