This is a nice quick meal served with crusty bread and a side salad. I did reduce the amount of linguine to 1/2 pound for 4 people and increased the amount of shrimp to 1 1/2 pounds. Easy and delicious.

This was just fabulous! My whole family loved it, including my dad, who is veery picky. I added a bit of white wine and it enhanced the flavors beautifully. A 10-star recipe, easy and extra-juicy!

My family loved this recipe! I used some tomato sauce and added a little cream to make the sauce (I did not have canned tomatoes). The pepper flakes added a nice bite to the sauce. I definitely will make this again!
