Ingredients
- 1 pound Shrimp peeled and deveined
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic
- ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
- ¼ cup white wine
- 1 lemon juiced
- salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley chopped
Instructions
- In a large skillet, melt the butter and olive oil over medium heat.
- Add the minced garlic and red pepper flakes (if using) to the skillet and sauté for about 1 minute or until the garlic becomes fragrant and lightly golden.
- Increase the heat to medium-high and add the shrimp to the skillet—season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook the shrimp for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they turn pink and curl up.
- Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set them aside.
- Pour the white wine into the skillet and stir, scraping the bottom of the pan to deglaze it.
- Add the lemon juice and zest to the skillet, and let the mixture simmer for 2-3 minutes to reduce slightly.
- Return the cooked shrimp to the skillet and toss them in the sauce to coat them evenly. Cook for an additional minute or two to reheat the shrimp.
- Remove the skillet from the heat and sprinkle fresh parsley over the shrimp scampi.
- Serve the shrimp scampi over cooked pasta or with crusty bread to soak up the flavorful sauce.
- Garnish with additional parsley and lemon wedges if desired, and enjoy!
Notes
- This recipe serves approximately 2-3 people, but you can easily adjust the quantities based on your needs. Feel free to add your own variations, such as additional herbs or spices, to personalize the dish to your taste.
