Oh so delicious! My first attempt at making shrimp scampi and no complaints! We even liked it better than what we have had at the restraunts. Served with whole wheat linguini and salad. Thanks for sharing.

I REALLY loved this one! Tasted just as good as the full fat version, without all the oil! I did not have fresh parsley and was stuck using dry but offset it with extra fresh ground black pepper. I served this over spaghetti and there was enough to coat 2 servings of pasta with the sauce from this dish. SUPER yummy! My 4 year old loved it! Thank you! UPDATE: I tried to double the sauce tonight to adequately coat 1 lb of pasta....didn't go so well. WAY too lemony! So, if you're thinking of doing the same, you could probably double the wine/broth but may want to think twice about doubling the lemon too. Loved it still!
