I have made this dish several times and it is declared #1 Shrimp entree in our house. Since I serve atop small portion of pasta I do double the wine, lemon juice and butter. Not a low calorie meal but worth the dieting before and after. Use fresh shrimp if possible. Will you be adding more recipes to your website?

We made this tonight and as former residents of NYC we found this recipe to be as good if not better than any NYC overpriced restaurants.I was born and raised in Manhattan and being of Italian decent and having dined in the best restaurants in the City I can truly say it was great. Bon Apetit!

You can use any white fish you prefer. Some suggestions are Halibut, Grooper and filet of Sole. Enjoy!!

What type of fish do you recommend? Going to make this for my girlfriend and really want to knock it outa the park. Serve over a bed of angel her sound good? Any rec wine pairings?

Thanks very much!

Comment on Rao’s Meatballs by jeanine

I like to fry my meatballs then freeze them. I find out easier to just thaw them and put in the sauce. Whichever works best for you.

Can you freeze the meatballs before you fry them? I tried that and just pulled them out as needed. I let them thaw and then fried them… then put them in the sauce. Please advise!

Thanks. My wife made it, becuase I’m not a good cook as it turns out, and it turned out great…

Will be making it again.. Or she will

I made your marinara and meatballs..What can I say? My mother was a big fan of your restaurant and the sauce (gravy..Iam a real Italian) unfortunately she passed from cancer at the age of 67. Now I can mke the gravy and always think of her while my house smells so so good. Thank You, Thank you for allowing your adoaring fans who love to cook make all of your recipies.
