Thanks to all of the reviewers, this dish was a five star for me!!! I added more garlic, sauteed the broccoli and added some white wine at the end and it was FANtastic!! I even left out the butter to be healthier and it was still that good! I also served it over rice pilaf which is always my route with a scampi--it seems to soak the sauce better and everything gets really happy together! YUM!

Good recipe. I added 2 cloves of garlic, fresh basil, salt, and pepper and sauteed them with the sundried tomatoes. Instead of broccoli, I used asparagus and cooked it with the shrimp. Added fresh lemon juice and parmesean cheese just before serving. My 12 year old son and husband loved it.

Ok, but boring!! I read over the reviews and made the following changes: 5 cloves garlic, 1/2 tsp. red pepper flakes, approx 3/4 cup white wine, omitted the butter, sauted the broccoli & shrimp in the sauce.. added some parsley, salt and pepper. Still bland - in hopes of giving some flavor i squeezed in 1/4 lemon and added garlic powder. Tossed with a heavier pasta (strozzapreti) and added fresh shaved asiago. End result: it was ok. It was quick but it was bland. I will not be making this again. Kinda a waste of sun dried tomatoes and shrimp.

This is great. It is colorful and something a little different for when guests come over. I do a few minor adjustments such as using spinach for the broccoli and adding more garlic

I rated this recipe 5 stars but I followed the recipe that DChrissy gave. I also drizzed the oil that was left in the pan from sauteeing the broccoli, tomatoes and the shrimp and that made the pasta have a little sauce. I also didn't mix the shrimp and pasta together I just put the pasta on the plate and then on top I put the shrimp mixture.

This was good. I may have added a little too much white wine. My husband liked it. It's good with a little parmesan on top.

This is a good dish, and a complete meal with some fruit. I cut way back on the butter, adding some olive oil instead. I used an extra clove of garlic, salt and pepper. I find it easier to just cook the broccoli with the garlic and shrimp. We eat this with shredded parmesan sprinkled on top. It's quite an easy meal to make, besides cutting up broccoli. I have made this several times already, and will make it again.

Thanks to all the reviews. I followed the advice of several. I tossed my shrimp in basil, oregano, red and black pepper, and salt I had some fresh asparagus that needed to be used. Saute the broccoli,asparagus, 1 large mushroom, lots of garlic, and jar of fire roasted peppers, plus the can of tomatoes, not drained. To this I added a few more dashes of red pepper flakes because it seemed bland. After about 5 minutes, I added the shrimp and it was truly delicious.Don't forget to add some white wine when you put shrimp into the skillet. Will definitely make this dish again.

I really wanted to like this, but it simply didn't work for me. Maybe I did something wrong, but the flavors didn't meld togather very well. The shrimp tasted awesome, but the pasta and the broccoli were bland.

This was a hit! I changed up the recipe quite a bit...I used penne pasta, olive oil instead of butter and shrimp and fresh crab. I would definitely make this again. I am having leftovers for lunch today!

Delicious recipe! I made it twice in one week because we liked it so much. I did change it slightly by adding more garlic and I tossed the shrimp in basil, red pepper flakes and oregano before adding it to the frying pan.

This recipe is only about 3 stars as is, but 5 with some changes. I marinated the shrimp in kosher salt, black pepper, Italian seasonings, onion powder, minced garlic and olive oil overnight. I grilled the shrimp on an indoor grill and set to the side. Sautéed a pack of frozen broccoli in butter, added minced garlic, black pepper, onion powder and a can of tomatoes for 5 minutes. I used lightly buttered Chinese lo mein noodles, too. YUM YUM!!

I made this a couple years ago (using this site) and am about to make it again tonight! I forgot to rate it before, but it is yummy! I'll serve it with some sort of fruit to round out the meal.

This recipe has potential but is only worth 3 stars as written. Here are my tips: 1) Use more garlic 2) Use half the butter 3) Add a little white wine 4) Stir-fry the broccoli with the garlic and tomatoes - that way it won't get overcooked 5) Top with Parmesan for serving. Now, you will have a delicious dish. =)

This was good. I added sliced mushrooms. Also I used way more garlic than called for. I don't consider 1/2 tsp to be anywhere near enough garlic for a dish to be called "scampi". Added some white wine while cooking the garlic and mushrooms. This needed a bit of pasta water at the end to moisten it up a bit. I'll probably make it again, but next time with less oil and butter.

I loved this recipe. It had few ingredients which makes it fast and easy to make. I added crushed red pepper in end, which helped spice it up a little bit.
