Liked this recipe. Be sure to buy raw shrimp, not precooked as they will be overdone. Would use a bit more chicken broth to ensure the sauce stock is ample. Great job.

This was just great; I served it as the "first" coarse for my special formal dinner on Christmas day; wonderful, I will definitely make it again as a "main". I also replaced the chicken broth for a jar of Progresso's white clam sauce, and strained the clams until end of the recipe....try it, you'll like it.

Really liked it. I used a tablespoon of lime to add a little zest and added a little extra chicken broth. A great dish!

We love seafood recipes where the wonderful flavor of the seafood comes through with subtle hints of other seasoning - this recipe does just that. It has a kick from the red pepper flakes. Served with rice steamed green beans & baby carrots. Lovely Sunday dinner thanks Sarah Close

I liked this recipe. I used extra chicken broth and lime to make more sauce. The next time I make this I will omit the salt, as I used canned broth and that alone adds a great deal of salt. I served it over white rice and it tasted great!

This was pretty good. I have lil ones so next time will put a little less red pepper but was the perfect amount for adults. Hubby wanted more sauce than it had so will double up on a few things. I added more lime mainly because I love lime. Overall good recipe will def make again.

Sorry, but I fixed this (following the directions to a T) and neither DH or myself were impressed. As far as flavor, all I can say is, we could feel the heat, but not much else. I won't make this again.

Love this recipe! It was absolutely delicious! I used sea scallops which were tasteless but the shrimp was awesome! Next time I will try it with bay scallops or just double the shrimp and leave the scallops out.

This one's definitiley a keeper! I made this twice. I couldn't get bay scallops so I used sea scallops instead. The shrimp had real good flavor but the sea scallops were a little bland. The second time I wrapped the sea scallops in 1/2 strip of partially cooked thick bacon, then threw in the broiler for like 5 to 7 minutes until the bacon started to crisp before i transffered them to the skillet with the rest of the stuff. It was delicious. Even after I was full I would pick at it some more everytime I walked by the kitchen. This stuff is addictive. Great recipe!
