I am giving this a 5-star because I KNOW it will be GREAT! I did not make it yet - but I WILL!
Have to give a comment to mittylu_12556429 - DID YOU NOT WATCH THE SHOW????????????? THEY USED "CRUSHED TOMATOES - NOT "WHOLE TOMATOES" - WATCH IT AGAIN !!!!! First you say - "you guys did not use whole tomatoes - you used crushed tomatoes" Yes they did and that is BEST! YOU ARE CONFUSED - CRUSHED TOMATOES ARE VERY THICK - whole are watery. GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT - YOU ARE VERY CONFUSED.

Good flavors, easy preparation and quick! I added a chicken andouille sausage also. It was a bit too spicy, although we like spicy. I think it was the addition of the sausage that made it too spicy.

I had been researching several different Shrimp Creole recipes and decided to choose this one. So glad I did! I had all of the ingredients on hand except for the seafood stock. I was skeptical but AMAZINGLY enough, the chicken stock worked very well with this dish! The flavors were great together and for an additional UMPH to this, I marinated the shrimp in Old Bay and freshly squeezed lemon juice! My daughter and husband loved it! Definitely a keeper!

Use crushed tomatoes instead of whole. Made this last night and while very good, something was missing: BACON!!!!Roughly chop a pound of bacon and render it out until crisp. Remove bacon and saute trinity/garlic in bacon fat instead of oil. Add bacon back in with stock/seasonings/CRUSHED TOMATOES.Also, if using andouille, I think that i would add it when I add the shrimp. I added mine a lot earlier and it seemed like the flavor of the sausage just transferred to the creole and left the sausage flavorless.

This dish was fabulous. My boyfriend and I wanted something different with shrimp (one of our favorite shellfish. The only deviations was I added more cayenne as we REALLY like heat. But it was delicious. My brother came over, tried it, loved it; coupled with the Italian bread and my garlic spread over it...fabulous dish! Thank you Neely's!

Pretty similar to the recipe I use, but I never add stock- if the tomato liquid isn't enough, a bit of white wine. Certainly no worcestershire sauce, and I don't know about caramelizing cayenne; actually, I use fresh peppers (Corno di Toro are my favorite for heat, and a lot of paprika. The peppers and tomatoes really make this dish- done from the garden in summer, with fresh tomatoes and home grown peppers, it can be magnificent; too bad you can't buy these things properly ripened in the store.

I made this recipe for my boyfriend. He enjoyed it. The only thing I did was add too much spice for him...lol! He can't take too much heat in food. I will make it again!

This recipe was great, I read most of the reviews, so I thought that it was going to be soupy, I think they used the wrong tomatoes and covered the pot while simmering. I also added saugage and chicken

I loved this recipe! I made it for friends twice and they loved it! I added a can of tomato paste with the other larger can and though there was "soupiness" it was fine! I served it with red beans and rice, salad and garlic bread!
