If I could rate this a 3 1/2 I would. It was good, however, the bacon issue. (not being cooked enough even tho I microwaved it a little before wrapping...and it was sooo rich. The flavor was real nice, but, way to rich for my husband and I.

I followed the show's instructions instead of the written recipe because there are differences. In addition, some tips and substitutions I made: red pepper, dry mustard, white not claw crabmeat, Buitoni Pesto w/Basil Pesto, partially cooked the bacon first, reduced the roux recipe otherwise it's a waste of ingredients, used cooking spray on the baking pan, and served over linguine. Next time, I'll try eliminating the bacon as this recipe can hold its own without it.

I made this as an appetizer for Christmas. Best I've ever made. Did not make the sauce and it didn't need it. These shrimp are amazing as is. I took the advice of reviewers and partially cooked bacon before wrapping. Worked out perfectly. The crab stuffing is far superior than the one I've used all these years with other fish dishes so I've got a twofer. Thanks Paula.

This was time consuming but definitely worth it. I used premade pesto sauce and cornstarch instead of the rue to save some time. Left over sauce is great on pasta with grilled chicken and artichoke hearts.

This is not a difficult recipe to make, it just requires a lot of prep work. The taste is fantastic. My only complaint is that the bacon is not browned in 15-20 minutes. Both times I've made this I've ended up turning on the broiler and moving the shrimp up higher in the oven for a few minutes to get the bacon brown. No big deal. Secondly, as someone else mentioned, the recipe for the basil cream sauce makes a TON of sauce. Really more than you need. Also, both times I've made this I've eliminated the roux from the sauce. I thought it was thick enough without it.

This is easy, great presentation and wonderful flavors! I did "half-cook" (pan fry each side of bacon for about 1 minute per side my bacon ahead of time so the shrimp and bacon were done at the same time.
