Very Bright Flavors
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

A must to use fresh parsley. Added a couple tablespoons of butter. This created a great sauce to pour over the shrimp. I also... minced the garlic VS just leaving them crushed. This helped to create the sauce.Read more

Seasoning May be too Salty
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

They were good, but the McCormick seasoning can tend to be a little too salty. I would recommend that you take the tails off... so you don't have to cut them off after they are cooked. Read more

Nothing Special
Rated: 3 stars out of 5

This was super easy to make but I was a little disappointed after reading all the rave reviews. I like spicy food so I added... extra crushed red pepper, but I found the shrimp a little to lemony tasting, so I added even more red pepper. Also, I put it over pasta as some people suggested but it just didn't seem right to me with the pasta. I have leftovers so I think I'll eat that with a vegetable medley on the side (no pasta). I've tried a number of shrimp recipes and find this to be "okay." Nothing special. Read more

Looking for a quick recipe after accidentally thawing out some shrimp....luckily, I had all the ingredients on hand, and... ALWAYS have Montreal seasoning on hand (love it!!!) quick,easy and very tasty...although a little too salty....will dial back on the seasoning next time. My kids loved it,and even my husband, who dosn't care for shrimp, kept popping them in his mouth, even before I could plate it! Good Job!Read more
