Shrimp Francese image

Found this recipe in Food Network magazine - looks so good, I found several "chicken" Francese recipes here but none for shrimp. I love shrimp and this sounds like one I really enjoy. The salt and pepper is to taste, but I had to guess at the amount to post

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my sauce didn't turn out creamy at all.

My shrimp turned out a little overcooked, but the sauce was still delicious.
