I loved this, especially the couscous. I replaced the shrimp with bay scallops for price reasons, amped up the garlic a bit -- it's a house rule that we double whatever the recipe says -- and it was FANTASTIC. The couscous was so moist and flavorful, I wish I'd made a double recipe. Yum!

wow! this was my first time cooking couscous and it came out great. the couscous is VERY flavorful. i didn't have clam juice or dry white wine so i substituted with chicken broth and it still came out tasty. i can only imagine how it tastes with the original ingredients. granted, nothing special about the scampi but come on shrimp is always good no matter how you make it. definitely adding this one to my recipe box!

This was really tasty. I doubled the minced garlic and used the couscous with the garlic and olive oil flavor packet. After I pureed the mixture, I added in the seasoning packet along with some, (I know, I know, gratd Parmasean cheese. (Gasp!...a no no on seafood dishes but it went really well with the couscous. And I agree with someone else's post that it is filling. No side dishes necessary. Very nice presentation too with some finely chopped Parsley sprinkled over it and around the plate.

This recipe is a keeper. Simply delicious. Will make again & again. Didn't hurt that I paired it with a Vernay Condrieu '06. Divine! Thanks Giada!

This needed something. I added additional red pepper, salt, garlic, lemon. Nothing seemed to make it more than ordinary. And the couscous was fine, but seemed an odd combination with the shrimp...Given the number of pans, blender and prep work it def. wasn't worth it.

Won't be making again.

I love couscous and had high hopes for this recipe. Unfortunately, the first thing my husband said is "this is interesting." Not a good sign. Not a great recipe.

The shrimp was delicious, but the couscous had an overwhelming tomato flavor.
