    This was really good! I was looking for a shrimp and broccoli dish for a little while and I found the one! The only things I did differently were I added a little cornstarch to the sauce to thicken it up and instead of mozzarella cheese I used parmesan. I served this for Valentines day - Read more ...

    This was easy to make and my husband and daughter loved it! I might try steaming the shrimp separately so there isn't so much extra moisture in the sauce.

    As is I would rate it bland an okay I wouldn't make it again but I added parmesian tons of garlic tomato paste wine and basil and the kids gobbled it up haha. Guess it is a different recipe now but the kids liked it much better and so did I.

    I have to agree with several other reviewers - there is nothing wrong with this recipe it's just pretty bland. I added extra garlic some cayenne and Parmesan to spice it up but it still needed something more.

    A very simple tasty dish. I omitted the mozzarella on top at the end and my family sprinkled parmesan cheese on their own instead. Will definitely make this again!

    Easy recipe but not a lot of flavor. I doubled the sauce recipe and it was still dry.
