Crab Smothered Shrimp

Features:
    Cuisine:

    I made this exactly as written, as well as making small changes to please my family's tastes. use imitation crab, leave out the breadcrumbs and replaced them with a finely shredded cheese (monterey jack for me), and definitely some Old Bay to kick it up a notch. I have made this recipe four times now, twice with the shrimp and twice with scallops replacing the shrimp cause I didn't have any. My DS LOVES this dish with the scallops, and my fiancee' loves it with the shrimp! I love it either way! Very delicious, and it makes you feel like you are eating above your budget, but your not.
