Garlic and lemon lend a pleasant flavor to these speedy sauteed shrimp from Sheryll Hughes-Smith of Jackson, Mississippi. 'I like to serve them over wild rice mix from a box,' she says.
I love the garlic butter shrimp they serve at Red Lobster's and this recipe tasted just like it. The only thing I did different was add some basil leaves and some pepper. It was delicious. My family absolutely loved it!!!
Read MoreIt was good. Not quite as flavorful as I expected. Would make it again though.

Delicious and sooo easy! I used cooked shrimp since that's all I had. I just cooked the garlic in the butter first and threw in the shrimp to warm them through before adding the lemon juice. Served with broiled parmesan tomatoes and a baked potato, and bread to soak up the sauce. Yummy!!!
Made this tonight for boyfriend and a guest - was delicious and pretty healthy. I used more like 1/4 cup of garlic (in my opinion, you can never have too much garlic, and once I mixed it in with everything else, it didn't seem like too much), used Trader Joes' Papardelle pasta instead of rice, and added in chopped fresh parsley at the end (that's important - it would have been much more bland looking and tasting without that). It was great - I think next time I'll mix in a little heavy cream in the end to liven up the pasta and give it a creamier flavor. But all in all - delicious!!
This recipe was great!! Loved it...what I did is added a little more of my own flare...diced onions, cilantro and a little bit more of garlic (powder)...it was wonderful!! Highly recommend this recipe! My husband also loved it!!
I've tried this and it's good. :) I made a few changes the second time I did this though. I marinated the shrimp in Sprite and I added some seasoning mix. It REALLY tastes good with rice.
In keeping true to my Spanish host mom's style, I didn't use lemon juice (but wish I had..), used olive oil instead of butter, and realllly upped the garlic. Served with crusty bread and sliced tomatoes drizzled with olive oil, vinegar and salt.
This is an excellent recipe. I added a few red pepper flakes and some parsley and oregano and upped the garlic a bit. We'll have this again!
One of my husband's standard favorites now. I do thicken the sauce with cornstarch or flour (mixed with water first). Quick and easy~
Quick and easy....I didn't use the lemon juice and I served over egg noodles instead of rice.
We tried this tonight paired with Chicken Alfredo. Very easy recipe...even my daughter enjoyed helping me make this dish.
I didn't think something this simple could be so good. I doubled the garlic and added about 2 tsp. capers as others suggested, and I also cooked my rice with half chicken broth to add a little flavor. My husband didn't think rice and shrimp would be good (I usually do noodles) but everyone loved this. SO easy...this will be how I use up my Costco shrimp bag. :)
Very very good. Not quite as good as I have had, but I will definitely make this again. Thank you!
I really liked this. I tossed some imitation crab meat in with double the sauce and a little salt/pepper and parsley. Very delicious!
simple, easy, and delicious! I tossed in some capers and crushed black pepper for an extra something.
In short, I'm in love with this recipe. As written, it's tasty and impressive for guests. It's so easy that anyone could make it. I have made it numerous times. As written and doctored to my family's taste. When I heat the butter, I throw in some garlic powder, dill, parsley, and lemon pepper. You can basically put anything you want in this recipe and it will be delish. Except for already cooked shrimp...I like to cook with raw shrimp but cooked were on a major sale so I picked them up, it was just ok in this recipe- raw is much better and moister. This is one of my favorites ever all the way around. Thanks for sharing.
This was really nice. I added a splash of white wine (didn't end up tasting it much in the final dish though) and WAY more than 2 cloves garlic. I sauteed the garlic in the butter until it was starting to brown, then poured it over the shrimp in a baking dish and cooked it in the oven at 350 for about 7 minutes. When they were cooked, I squeezed half a lemon over the shrimp and mixed in a little of what I thought was parsley but might have been cilantro.. either way, it was good! Not as good as Red Lobster which was what I was hoping to duplicate, but still very nice and I'll make again. Oh and served with angel hair pasta, not rice.
Simple and delicious! I used pre-cooked, frozen shrimp, so I didn't have to cook it quite as long. Instead of measuring out the lemon juice, I just used about half of a lemon and it tasted great. I also sprinkled in some lemon pepper seasoning. I didn't have time to make rice, so I actually just served it over Ramen Noodles (I know ... classy ... but it was just me and my husband =]) I had the chicken flavor on hand, but I bet shrimp flavor might have been even better. We both loved it! Definitely a good one to make when short on time.
Excellent recipe! This meal is very easy and quick to prepare. I made some changes though. I added olive oil (to butter), parsley, white wine, hot pepper and substituted rice with the tagliatelle (egg noodles). It was delicious!
Really good, and I'm not a huge shrimp fan. Also easy to make. Served it on couscous, and think it would have been even better with double the sauce to sort of soak into the couscous.
This recipe was wonderful! I doubled the recipe for my family of 5 and there wasn't a drop left. I added fresh mushrooms and thickened the juice a little with corn starch. If looking for a light meal, this is it.
Very simple to prepare. Made receipe as shown. Next time will down lemon juice to 2 tablespoons. Three was just a little to tart for our taste. Added some parsley and cooked pasta to the pan. It was suprising good. We will have it again.
really great recipes! I added a little parmesan to the butter for a great dipping sauce.
Delicious and fast. I used pre cooked shrimp and sauteed them in a closed pan. They came out juicy. It was a very fast dinner. I paired it with pre-cooked white rice. Dinner was ready in about 10 minutes!
I followed the recipe exactly and we LOVED it! I wonder if it would be as good with olive oil in place of the butter, just for a healthy alternative. Perhaps I will try that next time.
This recipe was very delicious and easy. I made this a few days ago. I used it as a pizza topping. My boyfriend loved it. I will make this again.
Simple & Delicious! I added salt & pepper to my shrimp before I placed in pan. Also I sprinkled with paprika & a little garlic powder. Instead of serving over rice & added rice directed into the pan to soak up all the garlicky buttery goodness. TOTAL FOODGASM! I regretfully forgot the lemon but I wont next time!
I tried this, but wasn't very pleased with it. I make something similar that calls for salt, parsley and less lemon. I love my version, but this one was a miss for my family.
Everyone liked it but I would use less butter and maybe more garlic. Less lemon juice also.
Simple and delicious. Another reviewer suggested basil and that added a great dimension to the taste - I just threw in some dried sweet basil as that's all I had. And LOTS of pepper. Oh, and I added fresh mushrooms with the garlic. Excellent & super quick.
very delicious i added some pepper and salt. I also added much more garlic and lemon
This recipe was great and SO easy/fast to make. The rice and veggies too longer than the shrimp! Only had peel-and-eat shrimp, so we had that with brown rice and mixed veggies. YUM!
This is so delicious! The first time I made it, I followed the recipe exactly and it came out wonderful. The second time, I decided to experiment and added 1/4 cup of sherry and a teaspoon of paprika. I liked it even better. My favorite shrimp dish for sure.
This is a great recipe. I didn't have any lemon juice but it was fine with just the garlic.
This recipe takes very little time to prepare and the shrimp was very tasty. I use the minced garlic in a jar instead of fresh garlic. I had a 12oz bag of shrimp, so I cut the lemon juice down to 2TBS. Instead of serving over rice, I prepared butter noodles with a pesto seasoning. This recipe is definitely a keeper.
I added green Onions and a little more garlic. As a side dish I did a veggie mix of carrots, Red pepper, Squash and asparagus! Very yummy!
I've made this recipe over and over and it's always a hit. It's so easy, I've used several slightly different variations, according to what I had in the kitchen. Great as a main dish or a side
This was my first time making shrimp. I am highly allergic to shrimp, but, I wanted to make a special dinner for my hubby. He loved it. This recipe is so easy. I used frozen raw deveined shrimp and served this with noodles. I wish I could have tasted it. Thanks for the recipe!!
I adjusted some ingrediants Instead of lemon Juice I used Basil Pesto I used garlic Powder instead of mincing garlic They Still came out great n delicous
Delicious, simple and quick! I followed recommendations of other reviewers and substituted butter for olive oil, added extra garlic, and cilantro.
these had my kitchen smelling like red lobster!! yum! i should note, go easy on the lemon, the first time i did it, i put too much lemon and was puckering up with every bite :( but the second time it came out absolutely delicious. i added basil and i think it gave it this nice flavour reminiscent of shrimp found in fettucine alfredo
Thank you for this recipe! It was quick and easy to make, made this when my husband invited his friends over for dinner. A good match with rice!
I LOVE IT! I have made it several times and enjoy it every time! As many have said, it's very easy to make, and you can add just about any spices in there and it will turn out wonderful. Thanks so much!
This recipe was tastier and had more body than I thought it would; but I like the suggestion to add a little flour or cornstarch makes sense. Very easy and really nice and healthy as I substituted Olive oil for the butter.
Husband loved this! We used EZ Peel shrimp and put over rice. Very quick and easy to make. I think it's too much butter in the recipe so I'll cut back on that next time.
Very tasty and easy to prepare, I was very pleased with this recipe and I'll definitely make it again!

This was excellent! My husband wanted me to make some garlic shrimp like they have at Red Lobster so I decided to give this recipe a try. We just estimated on the amounts and it turn out great! We also used garlic powder for a more concentrated taste. Delicious! My husband already wants another batch!
This recipe was soooo easy; I don't usually eat seafood but for his first fathers day I wanted to make something special for my husband (who loves shrimp). I added a clove or two of garlic and served it with extra garlic butter for dipping. He loved it and even I enjoyed some!
This was one of my favorite shrimp recipes that I have used. I did do things slightly differently. First, I added more garlic - mostly because I love garlic. Also, I added the zest of 1 lemon then the juice of the whole thing. Lastly, salt and pepper to my taste. I still gave it 5 stars because I truly think that it is a 5 star recipe, I just tweaked it to my personal tastes.
this recipe really satisfied my hungry tummy. it's so easy and quick to make! the garlic and lemon tastes really good in combination with butter and shrimp!
Pretty yummy. I added some italian herbs and red pepper flakes, and some cornstarch, served it over rice with steamed veggies.
Used 3 cloves garlic. Very good. Lemon taste was strong. 4 1/2 stars 2nd Time we had this I added pepper and dried basil. It also tasted very good. We just wish there was a bit more sauce for the pasta.
Delicious. I made this exactly as the recipe called with the small addition of a splash of white cooking wine. It was fantastic and I will be making it in the future. So easy too!
It's pretty lemony. Very basic but easy to follow recipe. That's why I used it. My 7yo made this basically by herself and was so proud! She followed it herself (with my help...lol). Thanks for posting!
