      This is the first time I have ever cooked, or eaten for that matter, shrimp. I LOVED it! The flavor was really amazing. I used 5 cloves of garlic, italian parsley (fresh) and in a separate pan I sauteed some mushrooms in some olive oil, garlic, white wine, salt & pepper, and added them right at the end. All I had in the house was fettucini noodles, next time I will make sure to use the angle hair as I think it would have been a better match for the recipe. This was a big hit in my house. Thanks for the post, I will be serving this again.

      This was fast,easy,tasted excellent, and even looked elegant. I plan to make this recipe again for company. I did add the fresh parsley and fresh Parmesan cheese as suggested by the recipe poster, which I think were essential ingredients. I did not add anything extra, although if you adore garlic, I see no reason why you couldn't add even more. A winner of a recipe!

      I have been looking for a basic simple scampi recipe for ages and this more than fit the bill. We followed the recommendations for parsley and crushed red pepper which were just right. Next time I think I will cut down some on the butter but the taste was excellent!

      Excellent and easy! We have an abundance of shrimp on the US Gulf Coast. I usually like mine fried, but I've gone on a healthier eating program and eliminated white flours. This was a pleasing recipe, even with omitting the red pepper (due to personal preferences). I served it over brown basmati rice and used the dried parsley.

      A wonderful scampi recipe that certainly was quick and easy to prepare. Delicious by itself or over pasta. For my personal taste I will either decrease the amount of olive oil and increase the butter slightly or eliminate the olive oil and just use butter. Only a personal preference. I liked the zing that the crushed red pepper flakes added and I used the dried parsley also. Great flavor. Thanks

      This was tasty, easy and fast!! It's a keeper for my family. I added more garlic with the addition of lemon juice at the very end and it really punched it up. I served it over Near East brand roasted garlic and olive oil pasta. Yummy! Thanks for a great recipe!!

      This was a VERY good recipe! It will be a keeper for sure...Only thing I did different was added some peccorino romano cheese to it while the wine was reducing a bit. Yummy, yummy, yummy! It was a bit heavy on the oil and butter, not a huge deal to us or anything but next time I might cut back to 1/8 c. olive oil and 1/2 cup butter and use 1/2 cup of wine to make up for it.

      Great, came out just right, though a few tablespoons of butter were enough for me.

      Great flavor, easy to make. I used half the olive oil and butter and it still tasted rich. Also sauteed about a cup of sliced baby bella mushrooms which I happened to have on hand. DH was full of positive accolades!

      I put a lot of garlic in this and it still came out a bit bland for me. I did add red pepper flakes too. However, a bit of hot sauce after cooking it made all well. thanks BritniSB

      Fantastic- I served it over rotini pasta; I even just used frozen cooked shrimp and it turned out great. Next time, I will use just a touch less oil. It really was restaurant-quality!
