      This is to die for. Shrimp, garlic, butter, and white wine over linguine noodles. Doesn't get any better or easier. I made this when my parents came for a visit. We all throughly enjoyed it. Thanks Nurse Di.

      Five stars isn't good enough for this wonderful recipe. Ingredients and directions were easy and perfect. They didn't need any alterations at all. The only problem I had the first time I made it was that the shrimp never made it to top the linguine - they were all gone. They are so good we just sat and ate them, then I had to go make another batch to go over the linguine. I sure didn't mind doing that. Great Nurse Di.

      NurseDi, this dish is wonderful. Really restaurant quality. Ok, here is what I did cooking for 2 who are trying to lower the carbs. I used 3/4 lb. white shrimp (med. lg.). I only had 4 large garlic cloves, so I used them all. I used dry white wine. I served the well flavored, beautifully pink shrimp on a bed of sautéd fresh spinach. You can guess that the visual appeal of the pink and green combination was fabulous. The shrimp was fabulous. You are fabulous for sharing this wonderful recipe. Thank you!!!

      This is delish! I started the sauce in a combination of olive oil and butter, added in a few shakes of hot pepper oil, and finished it with lots of Parmesan. Adding the slightly underdone pasta to the scampi sauce to finish cooking really helped the flavors to marry. Thanks for sharing!

      I really liked this recipe! I give it four stars because I think it calls for too much butter. I only used half the butter and it was plenty. I will definitely make this again. I did not have any parmesan this time but will add it at the end next time. I used about a half a teaspoon of salt, and although the sauce by itself was a bit salty, it was perfect with the shrimp added in. I served over saffron rice this time, but will use pasta next time. I think I will cut the butter even further next time to a quarter cup (a half-stick) and increase the wine by half. I also sauted the garlic in the butter for a while before adding the wine. After adding the wine, I let it simmer for about 5 minutes to mature the flavor. It was really wonderful. Thanks for an amazing recipe!

      Perfect! I used a little "Wondra flour" to thicken the sauce a little but that was the only change. Will make again!

      This was really tasty... I squeezed some lemon juice onto the shrimp before cooking, and next time I'll add a bit more juice to the sauce for that bit of freshness. I used parmesan to finish.. Thanks for the recipe!

      EXCELLENT RECIPE. This is better than any shrimp scampi I have had at a restaurant. I added the juice of one fresh lemon. I also added a bit of cornstarch with water like other reviewers, but it would have been fine without it too. I used freshly ground pepper and extra garlic. Delicious. Thank you for this great recipe.

      Simple prep with awesome results! Love how the garlic soaked up the wine flavor. Even my son who has always been kind of iffy about shrimp scarfed this up! Delicious! Thanks!

      My husband wanted me to make shrimp scampi and I was a little intimidated -- I haven't cooked much seafood. This recipe was SO easy, I never want to pay to eat shrimp scampi in a restaurant again! I couldn't believe how simple it was to make and it tasted great! DH said he liked it as much as Red Lobster's -- which is a high compliment! Thanks for posting!

      OMG, this is WONDERFUL, just had the leftovers from last night and it tasted even more fabulous than it did last night. I have always made my shrimp scampi to rave reviews, but my recipe called for Olive oil instead of the butter, imagine my surprise last night when i realized i didn't have enough olive oil for my scampi...i quickly came on recipezaar, knowing full well i would find a recipe that didn't use olive oil and found yours. Boy am I glad I did that, it's amazing! Thank you so so much for an amazing recipe! (don't tell grandma, but i'm using your recipe instead of hers from now on!!!)...thanks again

      WONDERFUL! This is a keeper. I didn't have fresh parsley so I added 2 TBSP dried at the last minute of cooking with the salt and pepper.

      This was a great recipe. It was a big hit the only thing I did diffrently was as it was cooking I noticed that the sauce was a little thinner than I wanted it so I took some of the sauce in a seperate bowl and added some corn starch to thicken it and mixed it well with the remaining sauce. When it was done I topped it with parmasean cheese. Wonderful Thanks for sharing this.

      Perfect combination. Excellent, yet simple to make. I put the parsley in while it was cooking, but other than that no chances needed. Thanks for sharing!
