delicious!!!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I always wanted to try shrimp a different way. When I saw this recipe I said "what the heck I'll give it a try". I made this... for dinner and all my family was commenting on how delicious it was... Since then it's part of our menu. :)Read more

Terrific but SUPER spicy
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I doubled the sauce but did not double the red pepper flakes and it was still super spicy. Yes, I used a hefty 1 tsp of red... pepper flakes, but my family (adults) were able to tolerate the heat, but barely and we like spicy. With the spice toned down ths dish could be rated higher than a 5. Plus it was so quick, it took longer to cook the rice we had with it than the shrimp. Read more

HOLY COW - GREAT!!!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I've been making this recipe since I first saw it last year. I can't say enough good things about it. It has become a meal... that we go to again and again. I only wish that Robin were still doing new shows and not just repeats. Food Network, you really lost someone great here!Read more

Fantastic
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This was fantastic and easy. I made a little extra (as Robin always suggests) and pulled some out before adding the sauch... and then made her shrimp crab cakes with the left overs. Another excellent recipe. For this one, I put it over rice (have tried it twice over white and brown rice) and made a little more sauce than called for. At the very last minute I added frozen snow peas, yum! Nice crunch and fit great with the meal.Read more
