    Delicious and very quick. I used shrimp that were already deveined and shelled, so I had dinner on the table in about 15 minutes. I try new recipes all the time and I rarely give a 5 star rating, this one earned it. - 8/24/09

    Great recipe! I used sundried tomatoes packed in olive oil and garlic then just added the oil right from the jar into the pan. I also used whole grain penne pasta. - 6/23/09

    I loved this! I added artichokes and broccoli and parmesan cheese though. I love veggies, so I had to sneak a few in :) - 9/14/07

    Yummy, delicious, simple & fast meal that felt like fine dining in a pasta restaurant. Only substitution I made was the pasta; I used whole wheat spagetti instead of the bowties. My husband says he wants this at least once every week! I may try adding some goat or feta cheese as a garnish next time - 1/9/11

    Amazing! I didn't think the shrimp and sundried tomatoes would be enough of a "sauce" for the pasta, but it turned out great! I used whole wheat pasta and will definitely sneak in a few more veggies next time. - 10/31/09

    This was excellent, but I think the nutritional info must be incorrect - the pasta alone is 210 calories per serving! VERY YUMMY, regardless! - 7/10/07

    I thought this was really yummy. Only changes: doubled the shrimp, used whole wheat pasta and I think next time I'll use less pasta - 6/26/07

    Made this last night and my boyfriend and I both loved it. It makes a TON of food though - great for leftovers if there aren't many of you! It's easy and looks(and tastes) like it came from a fancy restaurant! - 6/25/07

    Absolutely wonderful! GREAT flavor and the entire family loved it. Boys shied away from the dried tomatoes because the flavor was so strong but they tried them. :) A++ and going in my meal rotation! - 1/3/17

    Was tasty, added some hot pepper to the olive oil, calories are way off it is 322 per serving, not 197. most of the calories come from the pasta. 6 little shrimp wasn't much of a meal, so I made it serve 4 instead with one oz of pasta a total calories of 344.

    After my first bite I added more salt and pepper. The flavors are very subtle, and the basil didn't really add a lot to it. It was good, and i would make it again, I just didnt' think it was as amazing as everyone else did. It does get some extra points for being super easy and quick. - 3/7/15

    Amazing! I used sundried tomatoes from Trader Joe's and used the oil from the tomatoes for cooking as well. I also added a chopped Trader Joe's roasted red pepper. This is probably the best shrimp recipe I've ever made at home. Definitely restaurant quality. Thanks! - 4/2/12

    Am making for supper tonight, sounds great! Only prob I have is no fresh basil in my house. So I'll have to use my Penzey's stuff...won't be as good without the fresh stuff but I doubt I'll be disappointed. - 2/17/12

    I made this recipe last night and it was delicious. I did, however, add some peppers, zucchini and yellow squash to get more veggies in the mix and thought it came out great. I'm adding this to my recipe book for sure. - 9/7/10

    My husband loved this dish - although i just used a tsp. of olive oil and added white wine to the garlic and tomatoes before the shrimp and cooked the alcohol out to make it more of a sauce. I used smart pasta. - 4/14/08
