I would give this recipe a 3 out of 5 stars. It was easy to make and the flavors were good, but the shrimp were a bit overcooked.

This recipe was a disaster. The shrimp were rubbery and the broccoli was mushy. I would not recommend this recipe.

I thought this recipe was just okay. The shrimp were a bit overcooked and the sauce was too bland.

This recipe was a bit too spicy for my taste. I would recommend using less chili flakes next time.

I found the sauce to be a bit bland. I added some garlic and chili flakes to give it more flavor.
