Cooking for 2? This is the recipe for you. I have also doubled it for 4. It is elegant and light. Have no clue where I got the original recipe. I have had it for a very long time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but the shrimp were rubbery and the sauce was watery. I won't be making this recipe again.

I followed the recipe exactly and the sauce was way too thick. I had to add more milk to thin it out.

This was an okay recipe. The sauce was a little bland for my taste.

I've tried many lemon shrimp pasta recipes, but this one is by far the best. The sauce is creamy and tangy, and the shrimp are cooked perfectly.

I made this dish last night and it was delicious! The lemon and garlic flavors really shine through. I added a little bit of extra red pepper flakes for a little bit of heat.
