SHRIMP BOURBON

Shrimp Bourbon image

Got this recipe from a great Chef from New Orleans who ended up here after being displaced by Hurricane Katrina. Make sure you use a good bourbon or the dish won't be nearly as awe-inspiring!! Footnote (1/10/07): I've reduced the half and half and chicken broth in hopes that everyone's sauce will thicken up. I've never had a problem with it because I simmer mine
