  • “These were GREAT!!! I used 1/8 tsp ground red pepper and 2 tsp of dried parsley instead of what the recipe calls for. Also, you could use 2 lbs of shrimp, since it makes plenty of sauce to coat the shrimp. My hats off to Inez for providing this awesome recipe!!!”

  • “Simple and quick to make with a wonderful flavor created by a perfect amount of well blended spices without being over-powering.I actually had to make them two seperate ways as one person does not like garlic or red pepper flakes so I omitted them and added a little lemon pepper instead.I followed your recipe for mine.Both ways worked out great.I did add a little butter also. Thanks again for another great recipe.”

  • “Delicious and easy!I loved this recipe!”

  • “Man, this was wonderful!!!Son, Hubby and I all enjoyed.I also agree that 2 lbs. of shrimp could be used.We cut olive oil by 1/2 and still was plenty moist and tasty!THANKS!”

  • “Easy and quick and one of the best shrimp dishes I’ve ever made.Wouldn’t change a thing about this recipe.”

  • “Excellent simple recipe!”

  • “Love this shrimp!!!! :)”

  • “Another great recipe from MizzNezz!!I was looking for a good recipe for shrimp for my son’s birthday dinner.This fit the bill perfectly.He said it was better than any he’d had out.And it took very little time to prepare.Definitely a keeper.”

  • “Excellent, MzzNezz!!The shrimp came out beautiful and pink.When they turn that lovely pink you know it’s time to take them out because they do continue to cook for a minute or two.The sauce was right on.Nice garlice flavor with a kick from the pepper flakes.I served these over some Angel Hair pasta, and thought about you all the time I was eating it!Delicious!Thanks for sharing!”

  • “Wow!Good as Red Lobster.”

  • “Well this tasted good, but the shrimp were sort of tough. It might have been the shrimp, though. I’ll try this again.”

  • “Tasty, fast and easy!I serve this on spaghetti.”

  • “We used this recipe to teach a beginning cook bachelor how to do shrimp and it turned out WONDERFUL with very little work.Truly a 5 star treat and the only way I want my shrimp forever!No kidding!How’s that for a review??!!???”

  • “These shrimps are very easy to make and very yummy! I only used about 1/4 cup olive oil and used crushed Ritz crackers. It was delicious. Thanks for posting Mizznezz!”

  • “Quick & easy!I used the full amount of oil for 1.5 pounds of shrimp.I also increased the garlic and used half fresh parsley and half dried.The recipe didn’t specify which kind to use.This shrimp tastes nice and buttery, but with healthier olive oil instead of butter.Two thumbs up!”

  • “VERY good shrimp recipe!Wanted something simple and relatively healthy.This fit the bill.I followed previous reviewers’ advice and cut the olive oil in half and upped the garlic to 5 cloves.I used panko crumbs rather than bread crumbs and followed the rest of the recipe as stated.The cooking time was spot on (I even measured the distance from the heat to the shrimp to ensure the right height).Perfect cook time.Perfect flavor.It had a slight kick (but I only eyeballed the red peppers rather than measure them) and still my 2 and 4 year old gobbled this shrimp up.Loved it.Very flavorful and very easy.What more can I ask for?Thanks MizzNezz!”

  • “Fabulous! My oldest wanted steak and shrimp for his birthday, and this is the recipe I chose. My only change was to add some parmesan cheese with the breadcrumbs, and to use part butter and part olive oil. This was super fast, incredibly easy, and restaurant quality. Thanks for posting!”

  • “AWESOME! Wow! We loved this dish!I left out the red pepper flakes and replaced them with fresh basil but otherwise it was the same. I also only had pre-cooked frozen shrimp on hand so I only cooked it a minute per side so as not to overcook them.Thanks MizzNezz!”

  • “Loved this recipe!It was so easy and quick.I used Italian breadcrumbs and doubled the oregano and red pepper flakes and my husband and I ate the shrimp with rice.I agree that you could use less olive oil if you wanted to and still have a delicious dish.Thanks MizzNezz!”

  • “Super Yummy!! I served this as appetizers at a small dinner party I hosted after moving into my new house.I quickly ran out!!”
