Agreed that it needed more "sauce." The 2nd time I made it I added a bit more olive oil and butter. Also used cooked, small Maine shrimp and it was so yummy! It's on its way to becoming a favorite around my house!

My 12 year old son loves this delicious dish. He likes the honey grilled shrimp better though.

Made for New Years Eve for the family and was a huge hit. Broiling it was what gave it that special touch. Will definitely make again!!

I omitted the bread crumbs and it was still delicious! The lemon juice really brightens the flavor of the dish.

Very simple! This was my first time making shrimp and it turned out perfect! My family raved over it! I served it as a side with a London Broil and not with pasta. Delicious!

This recipe is delicious! My husband and two year old twins ate it up, plus seconds! After reading the comments I increased the amount of sauce by adding about 3/4 cup white cooking wine and only put about 1/4 cup of lemon juice. I also upped the oregano and pepper. To thicken it I added a tablespoon or two of sour cream. I cooked the shrimp mixture (with frozen shrimp) and pasta on the stove and then put everything in a corningware baking dish to broil it with the bread crumbs and cheese on top. I personally thought it needed more lemon juice and added it at the table, but my kids and husband thought it was perfect without any add-ons. It was soooo easy and I will make it again. This will be a weekly staple meal in our house! And did I mention that it's pretty and good enought to serve to company!

My family says this is a keeper! Hubby would have liked a bit more sauce over the pasta, but otherwise it was perfect and sooo easy.

This was very delicious. Broiling it in the oven was a great idea.

very good, but i agree about the lemon, it was too much.

Delicious! However, I also used less lemon juice and added a bit more olive oil. Next time I will try it with the white wine.

Turned out great! Use extra shrimp a little more butter, little less lemon and added bread crumbs to sauce before I added the shrimp. I did not broil.

This recipe was GREAT!! The only change I made was halving the lemon juice and using chicken broth for the other half so it wouldn't be so lemony. I also added fresh basil in addition to the fresh parsley. I did broil it, which I agree added a nice touch!! My family is very picky and they all agree this one is a keeper!

I substituted white cooking wine for lemon juice. I used frozen cooked shrimp. As it thawed the water from the shrimp mixed with the rest of the scampi sauce and made it the perfect consistency. I did not broil it in the oven. I made it entirely on the stove. Delicious!

I agree with the lemon juice. I just made it. I did enjoy it; however, adding some white wine and subtracting some lemon juice would enhance the recipe. I mixed the bread crumbs, cheese, and parsley together before adding to shrimp. The broiling was a nice touch.

This is something I would want to try, except, any good scampi has dry white wine. Without the wine it is flat.Give it a try with the wine. Make sure you cook the wine off at least 10 minutes.

I would substitute white wine for most of that lemon juice. That's way too much for a pound of shrimp.

My family and I thought it had way to much lemon juice. I suggest start out with 2 T first then add more to taste.
