REVIEWS:

This recipe needs no alterations!!! Very good and extremely easy. The rich buttery sauce really enhances the natural flavor of the shrimp and the ease of preparation makes it one I'll make time and again!!! Kudos!!!

Just sat down to review this and realized I forgot to add the parsley at the end. Oops. Very good, but make sure to add a good amount of hot sauce. Really needs it for flavor. I didn't because of a 9 y/o girl who is kinda picky, but I added it to my bowl and yum!

VERY hot not meant for kids. If you don't have the taste of really hot stuff, decrease the cayenne pepper in the Buffalo Sauce. EXCELLENT recipe. Can't wait to do it again.

Pretty good. As it was I thought it was a bit plain, but still good so I put four stars. Added chili powder and a lotta cayenne to my own.

Enjoyed this recipe! I did add minced garlic to sauce and topped servings with grated Parmesan cheese. A real Keeper!

I fixed this for dinner tonight and wow!, it's fantastic! I made a few changes. I cooked the shrimp in olive oil. I also added garlic and Cajun seasoning to the sauce. I also used a little chicken bouillon in the water for the pasta.

So quick and easy, and an amazing taste! I substituted the vegetable oil with olive oil and added 1 1/2 teaspoons of garlic while cooking the shrimp. Thanks for sharing the recipe!

Excellent flavor. For those night when you feel like something light, yet still very flavorful. One of my favorite shrimp recipes now!!!

Finally something my kids and I love!!!

Awesome!

We didn't like the angel hair pasta with this. Way too much and the flavor took away from the shrimp. I would decrease the pasta next time and cook in chicken broth for some flavor. Otherwise bland like another reviewer stated. I think the shrimp could stand on its on and just leave the pasta out. The flavor of the shrimp was very, very nice. Also, this was not hot enough for us and we bought the jalapeno and hot sauces to the table to increase the heat.
