      These have a flavor that is similar to blackened seasonings. However, it is much healthier by not cooking with so much butter. The flavor sears with the shrimp and is just outstanding! Thanks!

      this dish was awesome! i used pre-cooked shrimp and it came out pretty tasty. it had lots of liquid so i just threw in some spaghetti noodles and it soaked up all the juices. i'm going to make this once a week.

      Very yummy- we did these last night with some scallops as well and it all turned out nicely. Spicy, messy, smelled good, tasted better.

      Shrimp is one of my top 5 favorite foods. This recipe was so great, PanNan. Has all the wonderful spiciness of cajun shrimp but without all the fat from butter. The recipe doubled with no problem. Ate it along with salad and bread, of course. Thanks for an excellent meal.

      I live in Louisiana and you can not call this dish Cajun. It was tasty, but in order to make it taste Cajun you have to add A LOT more seasoning. I had to double the cayenne, garlic and add more salt.

      1/28 update: I am rewriting my review because I made this again with a twist! Because I like a sauce, I doubled the spices and added a small 8 oz can of tomato sauce towards the end of the cooking time. A couple shakes of hot sauce and a squeeze of lemon - this was delicious over a bed of white rice. Thank you!

      I made this tonight - fast, easy, and delicious. Great for one of those nights when you haven't gone shopping because everything you need is in your spice rack and freezer! Since it was just me I halved the recipe and the proportions were fine. During the last 30 seconds I threw in a big handful of baby spinach and a squeeze of lime. I served it with some leftover polenta but a side of rice would be nice as well. This recipe is a keeper.

      perfect flavoring and spicy without burning your mouth. I loved it, will do it again. BTW, i added some snow peas, red bell pepper, and green onion in an effort to get in some veggies, I double the seasoning. Couldn't be better.

      Delicious! I am doing weight watchers so I modified it to fit into my plan. I used 1 lb instead of 1 1/2 lbs of shrimp and I used cooking spray instead of vegetable oil. I ate 1/2 of the recipe which was 5 points on the PointsPlus system. Next time I'll add more cayenne because I like my food spicy. Thanks for sharing this healthy and easy recipe :-)

      Just finished eating this and it was very tasty...husband liked it as well. I did everything as directed except put 1 tsp of cayenne pepper since we like heat. Only reason I gave it 4 stars was I had a hard time bringing it together as a meal...just shrimp and french bread doesn't really work for me. We had it with rice and collard greens...still experimenting.

      These made a great appetizer and so much lower in fat than similar recipes. I didn't change a thing, thank you!

      My husband's comment: "This is spicy-- this is good!" We enjoyed this recipe, especially with blander side dishes of steamed cauliflower and orzo with parmesan cheese. Quick to make after a busy day, and flavorful. Thanks for posting.

      I used 8 Prawns and 1/2 the seasoning. It was yummy, but I think in future less seasoning for that amount of prawns!! Thanks for sharing your recipe.

      This recipe is awesome for so many reasons... besides the fact that it's quick to prep and cook... there are a wide variety of options of what to eat it with... Over rice or pata, with a salad or on bread!!! If this could get more starts, I would add those too.

      This shrimp was delicious and flavor-packed. Enjoyed for our Christmas Eve dinner and it went well with a rich cheesy rice dish and sweet glazed carrots. Great entree for a special occasion, also easy enough for a weeknight!

      These were amazing and so simple to make! The only small change I made was to half the cayenne b/c I had my 9 yr old eating these. I added the shrimp to angel hair with a can of mushrooms and alfredo sauce. YUM! Sooo delicious! Will make again:)
