You just may make memories with this yummy Lemon Garlic Shrimp, suggests Kristine DeGaetano from Brick, New Jersey. "This was the meal I cooked for my husband on our first date," she recalls. "To this day, he still remembers that night whenever I cook it for him." TIP: If you're watching your sodium intake, serve over regular long grain or wild rice, rather than a mix. Tip idea: If you are watching your sodium, serve this over regular long grain or wild rice, not from a mix. From a mix, 1 cup rice is left over. We could give a suggestion for using it.

This recipe is a little too salty for my taste. I would recommend using less salt next time.

I'm not a huge fan of shrimp, but this recipe changed my mind. The lemon garlic sauce is amazing.

This recipe is a great starting point, but I like to add a little bit of red pepper flakes for some extra heat.

I used frozen shrimp for this recipe and it turned out great. Just be sure to thaw them completely before cooking.

Not a fan. The shrimp were overcooked and the sauce was bland.
