2/7/2013Okay recipe, nothing special. Quick weeknight meal with a lot of leftovers though.

1/31/2013Excellent and very quick. The lemon really stands out. I've made once exactly as directed, and once without the chives. The dish was a big hit with my two kids.

11/4/2012Wow! This tastes great and it is so quick to prepare! For those not wanting to ruin their diet with an 860 calorie dish... if you cut the amount of mascarpone in half and consider this four servings instead of 3, it drops to a more respectable 550 calories. The dish was plenty creamy for me, and I feel more than full with 2 oz of pasta. Am definitely going to make this again! Would be wonderful for a dinner party.

7/28/2012This was very tasty, but like other reviewers we put the shrimp in later than the recipe suggests. We also added mushrooms and peppers to the pasta for a little variety and added nutrition. We will definitely be making this again!

7/16/2012We really liked this, but will do as dmazura suggested next time - remove the shrimp, before reducing the sauce. Not having done so resulted in the shrimp being completely overcooked which ruined an otherwise fantastic dish!

2/27/2012Very good! Made this for friends one Friday night after work and everyone agreed it is a great combination of flavors. One alteration I made: after searing the shrimp I removed them from the pan, added the remaining ingredients, and then added them back when the pasta was added. This kept them from overcooking while reducing the sauce.

2/3/2012This recipe is very tasty, extremely easy and time sensitive. Perfect for the working individual who wants a great tasting meal in a short amount of time. I have shared this with friends who are now using it on a regular basis. A keeper in my Meals on the Fly file.

11/7/2011The dish is wonderful! I liked how easy it was to make. Will definitely make it again.

10/11/2011Turned out GREAT! I added some chopped mushroom and definitely agree with another opinion about using the entire lemon (which isn't overbearing in the least). I would make this again for a guest night anytime.

5/29/2011This was a wonderful dish with a lot of rich flavour. Very easy to put together as well.

4/25/2011My new go-to pasta dish. Easy, fast, and incredible. Restaurant quality with week-night cooking time constraints.

4/23/2011Great dish! I was a bit hesitant about the lemon juice, but found that it could really use the full dose - the taste was still subtle. I followed the advice of another reviewer to take the shrimps out when opaque, adding them back later, and they stayed nice and juicy. I will definitely make it again.

4/16/2011Our family loves this recipe...even our 1 and 3 year old. We added peas last time and it was really good.

3/25/2011This was tasty and easy to make. I like the creaminess of using the marscopone but it sure ups the calories and fat. Nice for a once in awhile treat even if you are trying to eat healthy like me.

3/20/2011Made this last night. Really liked the mascarpone cheese as it added a new dimension to my usual shrimp scampi recipe. Will make again but will remove shrimp while reducing the sauce as shrimp did overcook and became tough. Will return shrimp to the sauce with linguine and other ingredients
by staybo,
2/7/2011easy and yummy -- made some peas to toss in it as well. I did cut back a little on the lemon zest at the end (and it was still pretty lemon-y). Also substituted grated parm for some of the mascarpone. Husband is not a huge fan of shrimp, but went back for seconds and called it a 'keeper'. Bet it would be good with scallops too.

1/31/2011A very nice pasta dish which lends itself to tweaking. Used the yield of zest and juice from one lemon. Added a couple of cups of broccoli florets to the pasta pot about a minute before draining it. Also substituted chopped green onion for the chives. Freshly grated Asiago or Parmesan makes a nice addition to each serving.

1/25/2011This recipe was amazing!!!Both my husband and I devoured it! Cooking the shrimp in this manner gave it the best flavor I have ever had with cooked shrimp. That is saying a lot since I don't generally care for hot shrimp. Bravo, Fine Cooking! Your recipes are the best!
by RaisinRocks,
1/19/2011AMAZING! My husband even said this was a new favourite. It is a great recipe for a quick and delicious weeknight meal.
by rabell,
1/7/2011When I made this recipe, I added all of the zest from 1 lemon (I like lemon flavor) and it was delicious. You can't go wrong with lemon and garlic. Fairly quick and easy to make.
