Notes: I made this recipe regularly when my kids were school aged and it was one of my go-to favorites. It is quick, easy and delicious. I was upset a few years back when I lost the recipe card. Luckily I had copied it for my Mom, and recently found it when I was going through her recipes. It pays to share!
For a special occasion use 1 lb jumbo shrimp. For quick family dinner buy any size peeled uncooked shrimp. Cod loin works well instead of sole (or any firm white fish).
