Tom Jones Shrimp



This recipe is from one of my favorite cook books, Tidewater on the Half Shell a wonderful collection of recipes by the Junior League of Norfolk Virginia Beach. It's so simple...and perfect for anyone cooking for one or for many.   Not to mention, it's delicious.  I highly recommend purchasing this cook book...every dish I cook from their recipes is amazing!  I have some baking right now, can't wait!
