YUM! My husband and I loved this dish. I followed the recipe exactly, except I used bowtie pasta instead of angelhair. The spicyness was just perfect for us.

The sauce did not have much flavor. Next time I may experiment with adding more seasonings. The shrimp was good, but I will most likely not be following this recipe as is.

Good recipe. Roux seemed kinda strange for this type of dish, but tasted good. I added red peppers & sauteed fresh mushrooms in an extra tablespoon of butter before making the roux, this gave it more flavor in addition to the spice.

I made this for my husband for his birthday. He loved it. I did make a few changes though. I followed the advice from other reviews and made my own cajun seasoning from the recipe in the reviews. Also I added red, yellow and green bell peppers as well as mushrooms. My husband said with out adding those things the dish would have been pretty plain with just shrimp and pasta. A few other changes I were, I made the dish with Penne pasta, I cut the flour in half and added more butter as suggested, and I only used 1 1/2 Tbsp of the seasoning. My husband LOVES spicy food and he said it was nice and spicy for him with that amount. He also said next time he would love it if I would add either chicken or sausage in with the shrimp (or both and have all three meats) So I think I will try that next time. Anyway, thanks for a great recipe, my husband ate the rest for lunch the next day!!!!

this recipe was great. And I was real nervous cooking the garlic. My husband does not like a whole lot of garlic but it was perfect. I did not have any cajun seasoning. So I mixed the same amount of each of red pepper, paprika, black pepper, onion powder and it turned out great. I did not change any thing left it just like it was. Very good will make again.

A great dish! I reduced the cajon seasoning b/c I was weary of it being to spicy, but I added more when I tasted it. This was different and fun! Much better than grilled shrimp or a boring pasta dish! Unusual and tastey!!!

I love this recipe it's one of my favorites! It can get a little spicy, so adjust the cajun seasonings to your taste.

This was awesome! I had frozen cooked shrimp on hand. I combined all the dry ingredients in the melted butter using 3 tbls flour and 1 rounded tbls cajun seasoning. I cooked that for 5 min then added the garlic, continuing to cook an additional minute. I added the shrimp and cooked until it was heated through, added the lemon juice, poured all over the pasta and added 1/2 c parm cheese. The amount and consistency of sauce is perfect.

It wasnt what I expected. It turned out ok, but I wish I would have used less flour, say 1/8 cup, b/c the flour overpowered my dish. Also up your seasonings if you like spice the garlic didnt come thru that much. Will make again with some adjustments.

Very good! I lightened it a bit by using skim milk, and a combination of Smart Balance spread and margarine (instead of the butter). It didn't compromise the recipe at all. I used Tony's Chachere as the cajun seasoning and omitted the salt. I think the lemon juice is key. My son was home from college and LOVED it. I'll definitely make this again!!!!

Made this this weekend. I took the advice of others and made my own cajun seasoning and made it with one cup milk and one cup half and half. This was great. It is important to remember the salt and lemon, the two really bring out the flavor. As good as going out.

This is super easy and really good. I used the full amount of spices and it was good - spicy but good. My husband likes things spicier than me. Next time I might cut back a little on the spice and the flour.

I LOVE this recipe. It's become a staple in our home. Just a few changes to make it gluten free for my celiac boyfriend... I use brown rice fettuchini pasta, and 1/8 c. corn starch in place of the flour. So simple and delicous!

I agree 100% with the review by Linds. All I tasted was cajun spice and flour. I think we would've prefered more of a cajun alfredo sauce.

This stuff was pretty awesome. I was nervous at first that it would taste floury, and I wasn't thrilled about it when I tasted it alone, but once it was tossed with the pasta and shrimp, I was very pleased! I will make this again.

This is very good. I only used one tablespoon of cajun seasoning-- it suited my taste, but my fiance put a bit of red pepper oh his. All around a good, easy dish!
