Didnât taste as good as the actual shrimp Napoli. Sauce was a bit off. More watery then expected. However it was good. I fried them to a crisp and found that the sauce tasted much more flavorful because of the fried coat around the shrimp.

Tastes just like the Bravo appetizer. I have two comments: 1-I didn't have oregano so I used herbs de provence, just great. 2-Next time I will use more cream as the sauce got a little too thick or maybe I didn't turn the heat off soon enough. Thanks for the recipe, it's great.

The fried shrimp itself is pretty basic but has a good crunch to it. The sauce however is quite impressive and flavorful. We ate it as part of a meal instead of an appetizer
