Note

The original recipe listed "1/2 cup" with no item name in the ingredients, but the directions mention adding "sweet red pepper". This has been inferred and added to the ingredients list.

For best results, ensure shrimp are thawed if using frozen, and pat them dry before cooking to prevent steaming.

You can substitute chicken broth with vegetable broth for a lighter version, though the flavor profile will be slightly less rich.

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat gently on the stove with a splash of water or broth to loosen the sauce.
