I'm not a huge fan of seafood, but I thought this dish was pretty good. The sauce was flavorful and the shrimp was cooked well. I would recommend this recipe to others, even if they're not big seafood fans.

This recipe was good, but not great. The sauce was a little too salty and the shrimp was a bit undercooked. I would give this recipe a 3 out of 5.

I tried this recipe and it was a disaster. The sauce curdled and the shrimp was rubbery. I do not recommend this recipe.
