Have made this 3 times now and still have requests for more. I did add thinnly sliced mushrooms and also started cooking the veggies first then added the shrimp. Will make many more times

Made this and served it within 50 minutes. My husband and ten-year-old devoured it. Lots of mmms and yums. The flavors were rich and delicious, definitely good enough for company too. Served it over ziti, added salad and bread. Used Pomi chopped tomatoes instead of fresh (not in season and raisins instead of currants. Stunningly easy one pot dish -- total keeper for fast weeknight dinner.

I usually don't make Mario's recipes because they are too involved or have too many ingredients and I don't have time, but this one was nice and simple and very quick. Great for company because you can make the sauce and then just add the shrimp right before you are ready to eat. I served it in a bowl over orzo. The only thing I did differently was to use canned tomatoes instead of fresh because it's winter and the fresh ones are tasteless.
