So simple and fast!!! I added some extra garlic cause I love it. Yum!
Super easy and quick to make! The garlic smell was amazing! Perfect for a romantic dinner.
Only 8 steps? Easy peasy! 😄
This dish turned out amazing! I added a bit of extra garlic since we love it. Will make it again!
Too much garlic for my taste. Also, lemon juice is kinda sour if you ask me.
I wouldn’t use white wine. Not everyone drinks alcohol! Also, mine didn’t look as good as the picture. 😕
It’s okay, but the shrimp were a bit rubbery. Maybe I cooked them too long? Not what I expected for Valentine’s dinner.
This was delish! My boyfriend loved it. Perfect for Valentine’s dinner!
Yum! Glad you both enjoyed it! I made it last year and it was a hit too. Perfect for romance!
Simple but delicious! Do you think it would work with chicken too? 🤔
Do you think it can work with chicken too? Asking for my cousin.
Why would you put chicken in a shrimp recipe? Sounds weird to me! Stick to shrimp if that’s what the recipe says.
I think chicken would work, but it might end up dry if you don’t cook it right. Shrimp cooks faster, so just watch it! 🐔
The shrimp turned out tough, what did I do wrong? 🙁
I tried this recipe and the shrimp turned out rubbery. Maybe I cooked them too long? What did I do wrong?
Rubbery shrimp? Sounds like a bust. Better luck next time. Also, did you use frozen shrimp? That might’ve changed things.
I think the shrimp are really easy to overcook! Maybe try just 1-2 minutes per side next time. They should be pink and not rubbery!
I dont usually cook but this was easy enough for me! Thanks!
Wasn’t bad, but I used frozen shrimp and it just didn’t taste fresh. Next time, I’ll try fresh shrimp.
This is the 3rd shrimp dish I tried and this was the worst! Too plain!
My husband doesn’t like shrimp but I made it anyway… he actually ate it! So it’s a win for me!
SO YUMMY! Will be making this every week! Thanks for the recipe!
Not bad, but I think it needed more seasoning. Couldn’t really taste the lemon or wine.
This was ok, I guess. Shrimp is shrimp, right? I don’t think I would make it again.
Really delicious! I made this for my girlfriend on Valentine’s Day and she loved it! Will definitely make again.
Aww, that’s so sweet! I’m glad your girlfriend loved it. Cooking for someone you care about is the best! 😊
It sounds nice, but shrimp can be tricky. What if it was too salty? Might wanna be careful next time. 🤔
I thought it would be better with more spice, but overall not bad.
I guess it depends on personal taste! I thought it had a nice kick. Perhaps add more red pepper flakes next time?
Shrimp or prawn? I get confused which is which.
Shrimp are typically smaller and have a slightly different flavor than prawns, which are larger. Just remember, if it’s big, it’s probably a prawn!
very nice, I put more lemon juice lol. Made it zing!
