Great dish! Switched to basil and it came out fantastic!

Outstanding recipe!!!!

Fast, very easy and elegant! Served as a dinner with a green salad. Wow!

This is good but I think next time I would double the garlic and shallots and use regular butter. I also added a dash of red pepper flakes and it gave it that extra special kick. Thanks for posting!

These are really good. Family and friends loved this.

I was looking for a quick dinner with the shrimp I had on hand. This turned out wonderfully. Unfortunately, it was the one time I did not have shallots (which we love!) on hand, so following a suggestion I used onion. I also added a hint of red pepper. I can't wait to try this with shallots! I may try adding a little white wine too. Probably making this again for New Year's Eve dinner tomorrow night!

What a fabulous recipe!! All I had were frozen cooked jumbo shrimp, so I had my doubts at how this would turn out. I mixed the marinade adding about 1/4 cup of white wine, and marinated the shrimp for about 2 hours. Then, I heated a skillet on med. high heat, threw in the whole shebang, and served french bread to mop up the juices. Very impressive results, thanks for the recipe!!

This one is a keeper! With 3 exceptions, we followed the recipe exactly. There were only 2 of us and we aren't big eaters, as in our younger years. We used just a tad over 1 pound of large shrimp, which made for left-overs. We both l-o-v-e garlic and felt that 1 tbs minced garlic sorta equates to "why bother?". I think I used about 6 good-sized cloves and minced 'em good. Used all the rest of the ingredients and let it all rest in the fridge for at least 1 1/2 hrs, if not a bit more. Bob didn't feel like messing with the grill, so we cooked 'em on the stove. Served it over angel hair pasta along with some steamed spinach and a salad, and a lovely bottle of dry, crisp white French wine. Oh my, what a meal!! We both agree we may never order shrimp scampi in a restaurant again! This recipe is sooo good on its own, 'though we just might try experimenting and add some white wine in the marinade next time. The leftovers reheated beautifully in the microwave at half-power. Thanks, Holly, this recipe is truly a keeper!

This recipe was absolutely delicious! I've been trying out a bunch of shrimp recipes from this site recently, and this is by far my favourite! Served over rice, it was perfect for lunch!

This was just okay for me.

This shrimp scampi is absolutely delicious!!!!!!!!!! I made it for my family and they all loved it. They even thought it was better than Red Lobster's shrimp scampi!

I made these on the grill to go with our easter dinner...I used a bag of shrimp and let them marinate overnight they were good but think they would be much better with fresh shrimp

All I can say is YUM. I am only giving it 4 stars because somehow the shrimp or perhaps the oil made our grill flare up almost catching our patio on fire. That would have hindered our Valentines Day.

Great, although I served this as an "tapas" appetizer, since I was looking for the spanish "gambas al ajillo". I marinated the shrimp with about 4 TB of good butter and the oil. Then I heated another 1/3 cup olive oil to very hot and dumped in the shrimp. After about 2 minutes, I mixed the shrimp up, added salt, fresh ground pepper, and about 1 tsp. cajun seasoning ( Slap Yo Momma). I served it with french bread. Of course, the shrimp was very fresh, bought off the boat near Apalachacola Florida. I think next time I'll reduce the oil, add some chopped green onions at the last minute and thicken with some cream and maybe flour. I'll serve in a toasted bread bowl and bet it's just like a very popular recipe at an Italian restaurant in Baltimore!!

Love this receipe, I have made it several times, but over rice, and have added some light cream, to make more sauce, and more rick-yummy!

Wonderful shrimp on the grill. We have made this for friends as a dinner appetizer several times. To help keep the shrimp on the BBQ we place them on a grill grate with holes. Just make sure you don't get the grill too hot before adding the shrimp. The butter can easily flame up, which turns the shrimp black. Watch your heat and these guys are outstanding.

WOW. I let the shrimp marinate for a few hours in the sauce and then skewered them for easier grilling. Incredible. Thanks for the recipe!

I have made this with mussels and it is great. What can I do to make the mussels scream with garlic? Thank you for sharing and God bless.

Seems almost too simple to be so good! I cut back on the oil and butter and they were still great.
