For those who believe the sauce should be the main event. This dish has a perfect partnership of spice and flavor. A nice heat that's done when you are done.

What makes is NYC Style?
This recipe has a lightness to it with a little zip. A use of Sherry over Olive Oil with less butter allows more focus on the spicy and a less heavy feeling. The tofu! It takes on all the flavors of the dish.

How did this happen?
Like most good stories, love! A honeymoon where the misses and I had New Orleans BBQ Shrimp for the first time. Realizing NYC doesn't have any good News Orleans cooking, we had to bring it back with us.
