Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

  • Skamper on February 24, 2023

    Delicious. I scaled it down to 2 servings, eyeballing ingredients. Used banza linguine; didn't add the lemon slices. Very easy weeknight dish.

    Nice quick dinner. We enjoy it everytime.

  • KatGeorge on November 14, 2021

    I have made this many times - never disappoints!

  • ChelseaP on May 22, 2021

    This is a regular dinner in our house. We love it so much. I keep frozen prawns in the freezer so that we can make it whenever the mood strikes.

    This was great, loved it. Easy and delicious exactly as written.

  • Lepa on January 30, 2020

    I thought this was delicious but the rest of my family didn't like the strong lemon flavor. I still think I'll make it again because it was so easy and good. I omitted the sliced lemons and made 1/2 a recipe, which was enough for four people (two kids).

    This was fine but not a repeat for my household. I think we are just a fan of bolder flavors.

    I could only find smaller shrimp, but they were fine. Added broccoli and peas for a one-dish meal. Served with grated Parmesan (I know, a heresy in Italy). Sliced lemon didn't add anything except bitterness, so I'd omit it in the future.

    This is a midweek staple in our house. Quick, easy to make and the family love it.

  • Kfaber on August 09, 2014

    Couldn't be easier to make. Didn't get the point of the sliced whole lemons- and do you eat them or not. Had some friends over when I made this and there were no leftovers.

  • Lindalib on August 23, 2013

    Delicious, easy dinner. Will definitely make again.

  • fprincess on May 03, 2012

    I still make this dish regularly. It's a good week night recipe and I always have all the ingredients on hand. Picture here: http://egullet.org/p1875797

    Delicious! I added some left over roasted cherry tomatoes from the night before. Definitely a keeper.

  • bapfel on December 26, 2010

    This is one of our favorites for a quick and delicious meal. Just have a bag of frozen large peeled and deveined shrimp in your freezer and you have a meal in 1/2 an hour. 1/2 a recipe feeds two perfectly!

  • fprincess on November 04, 2010

    This is super tasty and delicious. Easy to make - I always keep a bag of frozen raw shrimp in my freezer for that dish.
