Oh how my honey and I love Shrimp Scampi. We don’t eat it often. But it’s a treat for us. A bottle of wine, fresh loaf of bread to soak up the juice and some times we eat this over pasta. So easy to make and eat! Read more I love making seafood. So fresh and so easy to make, we have my son to thank for that. He would go to the Philly markets and bring back the BIGGEST shrimp you ever saw (huge)!! See less
Ingredients
- 4 to 6 servings shopping list
- 1/2 cup butter shopping list
- 4 tablespoons minced garlic shopping list
- 1/4 cup dry white wine shopping list
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice shopping list
- 1 1/2 pounds large shrimp, peeled and de-veined shopping list
- 8 sprigs parsley, finely chopped shopping list
- salt and pepper shopping list
- lemon slices, as a garnish shopping list
How to make it
- If you like it spicey as we do. Add crushed peppers. I always crush them in my hand before adding them.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook until softened but not browned, about 1 to 2 minutes. Add the wine and lemon juice and cook for another 2 minutes. As the sauce thickens, add the shrimp and cook for about 1 to 2 minutes making sure not to over-cook them. As a final touch, add the parsley and season with salt and pepper.
- To serve, cook your favorite pasta and top with shrimp and sauce. Garnish with lemon slices, and chopped parsley. Or just eat it with fresh crusty bread or garlic bread...yumm
- sometimes we double the sauce.
- Sometimes we just make the scampi and serve it with garlic bread and eat it as an appitizer.
- Pass the wine!
