Shrimp Scampi

What You Will Need: Raw shrimp (thawed & dried), soften butter, lemon, garlic, onion, dry white wine, fresh parsley & old bay seasoning. 

The key to this dish is speed. You don't want to overcook the shrimp so have everything out, cut & ready.


In a large skillet, melt about a tablespoon of butter. Sauté 3T. of onions & 1T. garlic for about 2 minutes.


Add in the shrimp & 1-2 t. of the old bay seasoning. If you want more heat, add in another 1-2 t.


2T. of white wine goes in next. Bring to bubble & allow the alcohol to cook out. 
The wine is optional, you can make this dish without. 


Squeeze in some fresh lemon juice.  


3 or 4...or 5 pats of butter


Finish with plenty of fresh parsley!


Pile into a large bowl with all the buttery garlic juice! 


With this basic recipe the possibilities are endless for you. 

Serve over your favorite...
pasta, 
grilled chicken, 
seared steak,
salad, 
or keep it simple with just the shrimp & some crusty bread for dipping into that sauce!! 


Enjoy & Always Cook with Love!
