5 Reviews of Venetian Shrimp and Scallops

From: Just Call Me Martha

On Jun 24, 2004

I was searching for a recipe that included both shrimp and scallops and I just happened to have all the ingredients to make this wonderful recipe (I did have to substitute on onion for the shallot though). I served this over a small amount of whole wheat pasta and it was great! The lemon, the fresh basil, the saffron - great flavour mix. Everyone loved it, Thanks Kozmic Blues!

    Absolutely fabulous!! Everyone should try this. Definitely restaurant quality food here. The layers of flavors are wonderful. I used 3/4 lb of shellfish combined, and cut the remaining ingredients in half. That worked perfectly. I did use chicken broth and my tomatoes were seasoned with garlic and olive oil. Very very good. I will make this again, and I'm sure it will impress dinner guests.

    We love this recipe!! It would be super expensive in a nice restaurant, but is not too unreasonable to make at home. Very tasty! We dipped french bread in the broth and sopped up every last drop!

    Excellent. A favorite of family and friends. I've made it with and without the saffron. If you don't have it in your pantry don't worry ... it's great either way.

    Great recipe! I was making it just for two, so I just used the scallops, but I want to try it with the shrimp next time! I served it over rice, and it was a big hit!
