"Read the reviews and made a few changes: We prefer marscapone over ricotta, and the bechamel sauce seemed somewhat flavorless, so prior to cooking, I spread marinara sauce over the top and then sprinkled the parmesan cheese, baked until bubbly, then spread chopped fresh parsley over the top. The bechamel sauce was thick, I think it must be slowl""

"This is absolutely amazing! Next time I will use 2 pounds of chicken because my husband and two teenage sons licked the bowls clean. This will be in our regular dinner rotation.

"The flavor was authentic and better than any chinese restaurant. The recipe is very easy and about 3/4 could be prepared in advance for a quick "throw together". The sauce could be premade, the broccoli blanched, and the chicken pre-cooked prior to the actual combining of all the ingredients. Because I have teenage sons, I used 1.5 pounds of chicken thighs and 3 cups of broccoli, and doubled the sauce as was suggested and was glad I did. Served this with brown rice and my family would have licked the platter clean had I let them. This is absolutely delicious! The highest reviews possible!

"This was very good and easy to make. I gave it four stars because it was slightly on the salty side for my taste, and I would reduce the orange zest down to 3/4 of an orange - but that is a personal preference, I marinated for six hours and perhaps that brought out the saltiness. However, this is a wonderful recipe that I will make again for my family with slight tweaking. My two teenage sons and husband raved about the flavor.

"This is a delicious version of shrimp bisque, possibly better than you'll find in a restaurant. It is very important to use seafood stock, and simmer the shrimp shells to develop the flavor. We like our bisque with more bite, so I increased the cayenne pepper to 1/4 tsp. If you want a thicker soup, don't add water to the simmered seafood stock, perhaps use a few more shrimp, and puree to your desired thickness. My husband and I do not understand the poor reviews; we don't think the directions were followed, and perhaps substitutions were used which created a poor product. The sherry and cognac/brandy are a must and cannot be skipped. This is truly an outstanding shrimp bisque!
