Absolutely fantastic! The shrimp were cooked perfectly, and the sauce had the perfect amount of heat. The lemon and white wine really brightened up the flavors. Will definitely be making this again!

Grace Martinez3

Good, but I felt like it needed a little something extra. Maybe some capers or a touch more acidity.

I found the sauce a bit bland. I added more garlic and red pepper flakes, but it still wasn't quite right. Maybe the quality of the shrimp matters a lot?
