This is a very good recipe! I will probably make it often. I like strong-tasting foods, so I think I'll add more salt and pepper or add red pepper flakes, as a previous comment suggested. I made my own balsamic vinaigrette since I didn't have the Kraft kind, with 1 part balsamic vinegar, 2 parts olive oil, rosemary, garlic, and freshly grated salt and pepper. Great taste!

This recipe was really easy to make. I will definitely make again! I like spicy food so I added red pepper to the recipe and it added the flare I needed. Most importantly, my boyfriend really enjoyed it and asked for seconds.

I've made this twice now and the family loves it! It is right up there with Olive Garden. It does take a little time to peel and devein the shrimp, so I would suggest to do that first.

I loved it. Very good. I have actually made it twice. The first time I used canned chicken broth and the second time I used the mix yourself kind and I liked it with the canned better. I will definately make this often.

Delicious! I doubled the shrimp and added about a cup of milk to the dish just before turning off the heat. Without additional liquid the pasta was extremely sticky. This kept well as a "left-over", but I added some milk to it when I warmed it up. The balsamic flavoring on the shrimp is great!

This recipe was quick, very easy, economical, and delicious. The only thing I did differently was I used 1lb. of shrimp instead of 1/2lb..
