This recipe is AWESOME! We LOVED it!!! SUCH fresh flavor!!! PLEASE use ONLY RED bell peppers! They're SO much sweeter! They're SO worth the difference in $$$ (glad we found 'em on sale!) They're SO important to the sweetness in the flavor balance! I used canned tomatoes, because I was afraid of the skins from fresh. Not bad, but I'll be using fresh Roma tomatoes the next time! (Pepper skins didn't interfere... why should tomato skins?) Happy to have my basil plant, in the window... for MORE fresh flavor! This recipe is dependent on FRESH ingredients! I'll probably try to get fresh Va. Beach shrimp, for the next batch!

I altered it slightly to our taste. I used garlic & onion tomatoes & petite tomatoes, a whole can of tomato paste & a can of tomato sauce. Didn't have fennel so instead I used italian seasoning. Make sure to use plenty of garlic & don't leave out the white wine. The white wine made a huge difference when I finally added it (almost forgot!). I also added fresh spinach during the last 5 minutes. Served it over thin spaghetti. This is so versatile & modifiable!

Super yummy!!! I'm cutting down on carbs so I served with steamed asparagus. It was so tasty and filling. I've traveled in France and the combination of veggies and spices was very authentic. This will be a regular in our household.

So sorry, but we didn't love it. Seemed bland and blah. I just can't place what would improve it.

I've never tried any version of shrimp Provençal, so it's possible that I don't know what to expect of such a dish, but I wasn't pleased. It tasted more like a puree of veggies to me, though I didn't use white wine, and didn't have tomato paste (I substituted with tomato sauce). Obviously I'm no gourmet chef, or this would've been better. Just don't think I'll try again.

Nice and fresh tasting. I did not follow recipe completely though. No fresh thyme (dry only), no wine. Paired it with steamed broc and peas. nice dish!

I enjoyed this recipe, but changed it a little to suit my taste. I used half red peppers and half green peppers and a lot more garlic. I also added crushed red pepper to add a little kick. It turned out great!

This is a very healthy and flavorful recipe. I love it. I wanted to serve it over rice and needed more juice, so I doubled the wine, tomatoes, tomato paste, fennel, and thyme. I also omitted 1Tb of the oil. Otherwise, I followed the recipe and it was so delicious!
