Delish! Easy to make, very tasty. I substituted the clam juice with seafood stock and I loved it! It looked and tasted like a dish from a restaurant.

My husband loved this and he's hard to please! As the previous reviewer said, shrimp broth works really well, which is what I did too. Added such a great seafood flavor. The sauce does come out a bit thin, but we just spooned it up because it was so delicious. I have to say all the Giada recipes I've tried so far have been spot on - especially her pasta dishes.

A creamy, tomatoey pasta sauce is one of our favorites! To put even more flavor into this version, create a shrimp broth made from the shells of the shrimp. Boil the shells with salt & pepper and some minced onion or shallots for 10 minutes in just enough water to cover them. Strain the broth and add as needed to the sauce for thinning instead of clam juice or pasta water (but by all means, don't forget the white wine!. The shrimp broth adds a depth to the flavor that takes the dish to a whole other level.

I made this with spaghetti and without the clam juice, only because I didn't have it on hand. I bet it would add a deeper seafood flavor. Dry white wine is key. Next time I will also double the red pepper flakes and saute them with the garlic and shrimp.

Very good! The clam juice adds an interesting tangy sweet taste. I for the most part followed the recipe to a T...except I added a bit of parm reggiano along with the regular parmesan, an extra clove of garlic, and I cooked the noodles into the sauce for about 5 minutes...to resolve the thin sauce issue others mentioned.

I loved this receipe! I took suggestions from others and I added onion and spinach. I'm pregnant so I didnt use wine I used the chicken stock instead, and I also opted for lemon juice instead of clam juice. A little flour made it a little thicker (which I like. Overall it was delicious!

I thought this recipe was great I have already recommended it to several family members and friends! The only problem I had was that the sauce came out a little to thin, but I'm sure there is a way to fix that! I just started learning how to cook so I'm still learning the basics haha! But best meal I have made yet!

The flavors in this sauce are fantastic. It will wow your guests, and is simple and easy to make. Works with any seafood too! Just make sure, whatever shellfish you use, to not overcook. I've made this recipe at least a dozen times now, and it is always a crowd pleaser.

I make this dish constantly because it is just so amazing! The herbs - dried works - and red pepper flakes give it such a nice kick to go along with the creamy sauce. I rarely drain the can of tomatoes - I like tomato sauce mixing with the cream. The clam juice makes the dish awesome, so make sure not to skip it. I would recommend this to any shrimp and creamy pasta lover!!
