- Wine is allowed, since the alcohol is cooked off, during the core autoimmune protocol.
- Choose a dry white wine for this recipe. A sweeter wine makes the entire dish quite sweet.
- This recipe is traditionally served with pasta or rice.
- Ghee is a good substitute for olive oil if you are only lactose free. And a store bought dairy free butter is also a good substitute.

- If serving this dish with pasta, make sure to reserve 1/2 cup of pasta water to combine with the scampi and pasta. It helps coat the pasta and makes a better sauce.
