I was recently in Florida visiting family. We went out to a restaurant that had an hors d'oeuvres called "Bang, Bang Shrimp". If you haven't had the pleasure, it's like a spicy and creamy warm shrimp cocktail.

Well, the following recipe allow you to recreate that same delicious hor d'oeuvres, but as a past dinner. Enjoy!
