The lemon and onion were too overpowering and the sauce was harsh and bitter/sour. Definitely not recommended.

This was loved by my husband and son alike. I'm allergic to shrimp so I couldn't indulge, but my husband loved this dish because it wasn't swimming in oil and butter. It was very tasty without being heavy in fats. I served with Barilla Plus pasta to make it a bit more healthy! A keeper!
not bad at all

very tasty and super simple although next time i'd make it 5 tablespoons of garlic, 2/3 cup of finely chopped sweet onion and only half of a lemon squeezed. the lemon was too overpowering. it wasn't as balanced as it could have been with the garlic and onion. but overall very delicious dish. do NOT skip the fresh parsley! YUM!

The recipe printed on the web site did not follow Emeril's recipe on the show. He did not precook the shrimp and add them at the end. He cooked them in the same pan as the onions after he had softened the onions up for a few minutes. Either way - it would work. I followed the method he used on the show and it tasted great. To all the complainers in these reviews - chill out. In the USA, when you order "scampi," you generally expect shrimp sauteed in a garlic butter, served over pasta or rice. If you are looking for a low fat recipe, check out the tofu-loving cooks on this channel and quit your complaining.
Too sour

Very good! Tastes better if you make the shrimp a day before, has more flavor. And you can freeze the broth for another time.
Fabulous!

This was absolutely delicious and so easy to make!. I may remove the tails next time. Also I didn't have shrimp stock so I substituted chicken stock and it was delish!
Scampi are langoustines

I am Italian (not Italian American). This is NOT a real Italian dish. For starters the recipe for pasta ai Gamberi is different. Scampi in Italian means langoustines. This thing is awful!!!!! Real Italian recipes are simple and good, unlike this butter and oil larded pasta.
Easy to prep and tastes GREAT

i thought I didn't like shrimp scampi until I tried this recipe. Def. not a big lemony person though so I only added 1/2 of a small lemon instead of 1. Served over sushi rice and it tasted quite nice.. used more onion and less shrimp to reduce cost.. will make again.
Excellent!

I tried this recipe for the first time a week ago and have made it twice already. The second time I made it though I subsituted an equal amount of shallots for onions, and chicken stock for shrimp stock and found that I liked the stronger onion/garlic flavor with the more toned down shrimp flavor in the second version, but the original recipe would be great for shrimp lovers.
Good

I didn't add onion as someone here said it overpowered. I also did not use wine and instead used 1/2 c. of shrimp stock, just boiled the shells with no additions. I also added more butter at the end as there was not too much sauce. Try this with Uncle Ben's Garlic Butter Rice. Gives an extra flavor. I will make this again!

Use the best onion you can get- I used a "Maui or "Vidalia", or "Sweet" Onion (don't really know which it was). Used a half of a very large onion. Anyway, found myself savoring the onions and the sauce. Served with specialty pasta- garlic and pasley right in it. Wow. Suggest you consider removing the tails- too much trouble to eat. Perhaps fully peeled shrimp. Even the "easy peal" variety took 1/2 hour just to clean. Used chicken stock- can't imagine a better flavor- wife loved it! Oh, I also lightly floured the shrimp while I seasoned them- I saw this in a French Cookbook this morning, I think it added some body to the sauce, and some covered the shrimp and pasta well.
My Husband said "Yummy"

I have cooked this meal twice for my husband, and needless to say it has quickly become his favorite. It is short and sweet, and does not take a lot of time. Being a working mom, I enjoy the simplicity of the recipe and the outcome of the work. Pair it with some garlic bread and a good bottle of wine, and you have a short and sweet family dinner. I hope you enjoy the dinner and the tip!

I really enjoyed this recipe. I served it over pasta and the whole dish was packed with savory scampi flavor. A couple of changes: used shallots instead of onion in the scampi, and used only shrimp shells, garlic and onions in the stock (because I didn't have the other ingredients). Will definitely be adding this to the collection.

I used 2lb 20-30 count frozen cleaned shrimp. The only other thing I did different was I served it over pasta. This was the best scampi I ever tasted. the texture of the shrimp and the scampi sauce were excellent and had the best aroma. Just fabulous!!!!
