    I followed the recipe, but the shrimp ended up too chewy. Maybe I overcooked them? šŸ¤”

    Super easy! I used chicken instead of shrimp and it turned out fine.

      I dunno, isn’t shrimp the whole point? Seems like a different dish now.

      Glad to hear it worked with chicken too! Sometimes substitutes can surprise you.

    So easy to make! I didn’t have white wine, so I used chicken broth instead. Still tasty!

    Ugh, way too spicy for my taste! The red pepper flakes were overwhelming.

      I thought it was perfect! Maybe try reducing the pepper next time? Everyone’s taste is different.

    Wow, I never thought shrimp could taste this good! The garlic and lemon combo is TOP!

      I totally agree! The lemon really brightens up the shrimp! I made this for my family and they loved it too.

      Sounds good, but I don’t know about using white wine in cooking. Can’t you just use vinegar instead? Seems like a waste to me.

    Shrimp? Gross. I can’t believe people like seafood. šŸ‘Ž

      Not everyone likes seafood, that’s true! But shrimp can be really delicious if cooked right. Ever tried it with pasta?

    Too much lemon for me, I shoulda used lime. Not my favorite dish. šŸ˜•

      I liked it just fine! Maybe you just need to adjust the lemon to your taste. Don’t give up on this dish!

      I totally get it! I think lime would have been better too. Lemon can be super strong sometimes. šŸ˜…

    Meh, it was ok. I’ve had better shrimp from the frozen aisle. Not very impressed.

    This shrimp recipe was a hit on Valentine’s! The flavors were amazing. Thanks for sharing!

    Too much garlic, it was overpowering. Next time, I’m using two cloves instead.

    Meh, just shrimp with sauce. Kinda boring.

  15. 3 stars
    It’s good but my shrimp were rubbery. Problem with my cooking, not the recipe I guess.

    I followed the recipe but it came out too lemony for my taste. Maybe cut the lemon juice a bit?

    1. User avatar mariel.bednar2022 says:

      4 stars
      I totally agree! The lemon was too much for me too. Next time, I’ll definitely add less.

    Shrimp and wine? Sounds fancy, but I don’t trust seafood recipes. Can’t be that good.

      I was skeptical too, but this shrimp dish was amazing! Give it a try with good quality wine. You might be surprised!

    This recipe was okay, but mine came out a bit bland. I think I’ll add more garlic next time.

  19. 5 stars
    Yum! Next time I’ll add some pasta to this, sounds good!

    1. 5 stars
      Adding pasta sounds like a great idea! It would make it more filling. Let me know how it turns out!

    Simple and tasty! I didn’t have white wine, so used apple juice instead. Still worked out fine! šŸ

    Total win! Makes me feel like a chef! Great date night dish.

    1. 5 stars
      This recipe really is a total win! I tried it last week and my partner was super impressed. Added some extra garlic for flavor—it was perfect!

    2. User avatar adam.rippin says:

      Looks easy, but do you really think it could be a date night dish? My partner prefers steak over shrimp.

    Soo good! Made it for my mom and she said she’s never had better shrimp. Thanks!

  23. User avatar pok.hills says:

    I tried this and it was not the same as my mom’s recipe. I think she used butter not olive oil.

    The instructions were easy to follow but I forgot the parsley 😩. Still turned out alright.
