There's a restaurant in Silverhill, Al that serves this sauce over fried crab cakes and I had searched for a recipe that was equal to theirs and this is it. I thought this was a wonderful addition to filet mignon. I did not cut up the shrimp but left them whole and served them on the side in the cream sauce. I left the option open to drizzle the cream sauce over the filet. My husband did not add the sauce at first but after tasting it he was won over.
