Shrimp Victoria

In the early 1970's, my cousin and her husband had a trendy restaurant in Galveston. This recipe was one of his signature dishes. It's so quick and easy to prepare and living close to the Gulf Coast we have it frequently and particularly during the Holidays.  This serves about 4 to 6.  Serve over hot rice and with a nice Tossed Salad and Crusty Bread, you have an effortless meal in no time.
