We really really liked this. I read the reviews and saw someone thought it was dry, so added 1/2 cup white wine while it was simmering. Not a lot of calories but saucier and tasted great. Also added 1 tsp white pepper. I will make this again. It's my 4 yr olds new favorite dinner. - 4/1/09

The calories are off on this recipe, with 6 oz of pasta a serving could only be 1 oz not 1.33 oz, 90 calories not 130, I opted for less butter and oil, more shrimp and garlic and broccoli and some white wine and lemon that makes scampi for me, also some fresh parsley and thyme from the herb garden. - 8/24/14

I've made this twice now and my husband & sons loved it. I also added a little white wine plus a squirt of unsweetened lemon juice while shrimp were simmering, & also thin slices of red bell peppers for some color & crunch. Used whole wheat linguine. Love this recipe, thanks for sharing! - 2/10/13

Since there was no real sauce, my hubby had to add extra olive oil to his pasta make it edible--and he LOVED it! I didn't, however (as I didn't want the extra calories) and found it tasty but really much too dry. Perhaps I did something wrong, though. (I used fresh broccoli and perhaps that's why.) - 7/1/07
