Champagne Shrimp and Pasta Recipe Reviews - Allrecipes.com (Pg. 12)
Reviewed: Feb. 14, 2010
I made this for my husband for Valentine's Day. The sauce is really exceptional, thankfully based on previous reviews I made extra sauce. Keeping in mind the reviewer suggestions, adding garlic and cooking garlic, mushrooms and shallots together was a success also. My husband loved it so much he has asked me to make it gain this week only without the pasta. Since he does not care for pasta I have enough pasta left for when I make the shrimp and sauce for him. This one is a keeper.

This recipe was really good, but I did break one of my cardinal rules. The first time I try a recipe, I try to do it to the letter, or at least as close as possible. I changed a few things on this one. I used Chardonnay instead of champagne. I didn't use shallots I used garlic and onion, and I used light cream and a little corn starch to thicken. Over all it was good but not mindblowing.

This was very good! Like allot of other reviewers here feel, it does taste like restaurant quality. I too, used canned, diced tomatoes vs fresh Roma's and it was excellent! For those having a problem with reducing... you MUST boil at high heat, stirring often. It will reduce nicely, but does take more than 8 min. Takes about 15 - 20 min. VERY HAPPY WITH RECIPE! Thanks!

Delicious! I doubled this recipe - 1-1/2 lbs. penne pasta, 2 pkgs. fresh mushrooms, 2 lbs. shrimp, etc., but also used 6 plum tomatoes. I also used a bottle of Korbel brutt (3 cups). The only thing I would do differently is not add that last 1/4-1/2 cup of remaining cream. Great Flavor - loved it.

A great dish! Delicious. My 2 kids are super picky and they both took seconds. My only change was to substitute light cream for the heavy cream. The sauce was still very creamy. Thanks for a super dish I will definitely make again.

I made this recipe for company and brought it out on the plates like in a restaurant. (I sprinkled extra parmesan cheese on top). The presentation was beautiful and the dinner was delicious. My husband, as well as our guest, LOVED it and kept complimenting me on the dinner. This recipe is definitely a keeper! I served it with steamed broccoli and special cheese bread and it truly was as good as any fine restaurant meal!

There is just something so RIGHT about this recipe. The flavors come together effortlessly. I used 3 peeled and seeded roma tomatoes instead of 2 plum, and a whole minced scallion, which looked like more than 2 tablespoons. I used a little more cream than 1 cup, too, though I only used 1.5 cups of champagne (actually cava) as the recipe calls for. I think the main idea here is that the quantities aren't all that important if you're keeping an eye on the texture. One thing though--it took me so much longer than 30 minutes to make this, even though I bought prepeeled and deveined shrimp! I am sort of slow in the kitchen, for sure, but I don't see how anyone could make this in such a short amount of time unless everything was prechopped, preheated, etc. Don't let this scare you, though. This recipe is outrageously good.
