Mr Jim's Louisiana Barbecued Shrimp image

Louisiana "barbecued" shrimp never touch an actual barbecue. Created at Pascal's Manale restaurant in New Orleans in 1954, the recipe has become a southern staple. This version is served with French or Sourdough Bread for soaking up the rich sauce. Found this recipe in Martha Stewart Living, Aug 2009.... IT IS AMAZING and easily doubled. We served this in a shallow bowl so everyone could soak up a bit of the flavorful sauce!
