Sauteed Shrimp with Lemon and Garlic image

My favorite way to saute fresh shrimp. This is so quick and simple. Serve over rice or angel hair pasta (I usually saute a little more garlic in olive oil and toss it with the pasta before topping with the shrimp). Yum!

I've tried many shrimp recipes, but this one is by far the best. The shrimp were cooked to perfection and the sauce was incredibly flavorful. I highly recommend this recipe.

I thought this recipe was just okay. The shrimp were a bit dry and the sauce was too thin. I've had better shrimp dishes.

Delicious! The shrimp were cooked perfectly and the sauce was amazing. I added a bit of white wine to the sauce and it really elevated the flavor.

Not a fan. The sauce was too lemony for my taste and the shrimp were bland. Maybe I did something wrong.

The sauce was amazing but the shrimp were a bit overcooked. Probably my fault as I'm not an experienced cook. I'd try it again though.

Easy to make and very tasty. I added a bit of red pepper flakes for a little extra spice. Will definitely make this again.

Followed the recipe and the shrimp turned out perfect. Nice and juicy with a crispy sear. The sauce was flavorful and complemented the shrimp well. Will definitely make this again!

This dish was incredibly flavorful! The shrimp cooked quickly and evenly, and the lemon-garlic sauce was beyond delicious. I served it over rice and it was a hit with the whole family.
