A versatile and quick gourmet dish - tastes equally good with chicken or scallops. I got this from the Land O' Lakes web site. (It always reminds me of eating out in Boston's North End.)

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I would recommend using less red pepper flakes.

The shrimp were a bit overcooked, but the sauce was delicious. I would recommend cooking the shrimp for a shorter amount of time.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra garlic and red pepper flakes to spice it up.
