This was amazing! It was the hit of our Italian dinner, Feast of the Seven Fishes, on Xmas eve. The lemon zest gives it such a fresh taste. Loved it!

I made this for dinner tonight. It was delicious. I substituted few things because we are in a rented home for vacation and I used Franks hot sauce because I couldn’t find the red pepper flakes at the store. That is about all that I had to change. I will definitely be making this at home. We are in Texas on vacation, and the Texas shrimp fresh from the water is great.
Amber says
Thank you!, Made it! Yum Yum! My husband loved it!
Jim McConnell says
I only used half the parmesan but otherwise followed the directions. I also used fresh posta. My wife and I liked it, but it was a little to lemony for our taste.
Ann Weiskopf says

This is the right website for anyone who hopes to understand this topic.
