Easy, fast, and unbelievably delicious! Fresh parsley could be optional as I have made this twice and found no significant to taste. Thanks for sharing! -
This was such an easy way to fix shrimp! I thought the taste was great, even though I didn't have any lemon juice to put in it. Instead of parsley, I just added Italian seasoning. Thanks so much for posting the recipe! :) -
I have made this several times and each time have received great comments. I have found that even using a 1 pound package of linguine, the taste is retained and it adds another serving.

This was the feature for our Valentine Dinner for DH, DS and myself, along with some steamed asparagus and french bread. It perfectly fit the bill for a meal that said "Wow" with minimal effort. -
Although I loved preparing this (it was SO easy), I feel like it was missing something. It was good, but could have used a little crushed red pepper flake or something to spice it up. But it was very good and I will make it again.

What can I say about myself that hasn't already been mentioned in the police reports? Just kidding! I'm a single guy who loves to cook! Good thing, or I'd starve or go broke eating out! I love to read, horror and mysteries are my favorite.
Love music, (except rap) and I'm a huge Green Bay Packer Fan!
