I thought this recipe was wonderful...It would get 5 stars...except I did change just a couple things... First, I used spaghetti noodles instead of angel hair. I don't think that really affected the taste. When the shrimp was 1/2 way cooked, I tossed in the frozen broccoli and cooked it that way (instead of steaming it). I also doubled the amount of pesto, and added some red pepper flakes. The sauce never did thicken up for me...and I was worried it would be a little thin...but once I tossed it all with the noodles, it coated them perfectly, and was just the right amount.

I thought this was very tasty, but that the sauce was a little thick for my liking. It was more like an alfredo than a traditional scampi sauce. Will definitely make again, but I will dilute the sauce more next time.

This recipe was great! I subbed half and half for the heavy cream, used whole wheat flour instead of regular, black pepper instead of white, omitted the parsley, and used fresh broccoli. These modifications were only due to ingredients I didn't have on hand. I for sure will make it again, just not often due to the high fat content.

This recipe was good. i dont know what heavy cream is so i used cream of chicken. Before i tossed the items together i tasted the shrimp and it was AWESOME. After i tossed the items i tasted it and all it needed was a little salt and it was really good. And by the way, my picky kids loved it.

This dish was so easy to make, and I had most of the ingredients, except the pesto and fresh parsley, on hand. I substituted with dried parsley instead. I had medium sized, fresh shrimp and fresh broccoli that I needed to use, so this recipe was perfect. I, too, doubled the garlic, of which I used more than half to saute with the shrimp. I added an extra half cup of heavy cream and used bowtie pasta, and I would've never imagined that the dish would turn out soo good! Even my 5 year old daughter asked me to make this again.. something she has never done before. I highly recommend this recipe! Thanks Robbie!

I've made this twice in 2 weeks because we loved it so much! I used tomatos instead of broccoli and followed the rest of the recipe.

Pretty good, but needs more flavor, recommend adding more of the Worcestershire and pesto, or even diced tomatoes and fresh basil.

I increased everything by a little bit because I had extra shrimp. Next time, I would increase the sauce more, maybe even doubling it, but it was great the way it was. I did add a little more garlic. My kids loved this dish too!

very good! I didnt use pesto or broccoli, and I used sour cream instead of heavy cream, skim milk instead of regular. My family loved it! It was mild enough for my 3yr old to like and so did my 8yr old. I think it would be easy for the spicy folks out there to kick it up a notch, but otherwise this is perfect!

My new favorite meal! Used half and half(only because I had that), left broccoli out( did not have any on hand). Fantastic. Next time I will saute the shrimp with some cajun spices to kick it up a bit. I can not wait to serve it for friends.

Made this for a party that had some homemade food and some catered. This was the favorite dish of the night. Used extra of the following - whole milk, garic, grated cheese and hot sauce.Substituted half and half for cream. Made the broccoli the day before, and the sauce and shrimp a few hours earlier. Put the broccoli in the colander and poured the hot macaroni water over to reheat. Put the sauteed shrimp, broccoli and macaroni in a big dish and poured the reheated white sauce right over it. So, so good. Looks like a gourmet meal.

Out of a family of five this was given an average of 3.5 stars but I bumped it up to 4 because I thought it was great. We used fresh broccoli and as the sauce simmered it did need to be thinned out with a bit of milk. This was a dinner I would definitely make for company and would recommend.

Phenomenal. This is the kind of dish Husband orders when we eat out, and he said it was better than anything similar he's had at a restaurant :) I made it with fresh broccoli, and I upped the amount of pesto and garlic. I definitely agree that you should double the amount of sauce. With these changes, this is a five star recipe. Thanks so much, Robbie!

My husband is not a fan of cream sauces (neither am I) but I wanted to give this one a try and boy was it a hit! I used fresh broccoli as I don't like soft veggies and I did follow other suggestions of doubling the sauce, but it was too much for us.
