Ingredients

What you'll need

  • 1 lb shrimp scampi
  • 1/4 cup lemon
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 cup garlic
  • 3 cloves fresh parsley
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • 1/2 cup kosher salt
  • to taste good finishing oil
Method

Step by step

  1. Pat the shrimp scampi dry and season it well so it browns instead of steaming.
  2. Get your pan hot and render the aromatics until they smell sweet and toasty.
  3. Return the shrimp scampi, add just enough liquid, and simmer until everything is tender.
  4. Taste, brighten with a squeeze of citrus, and plate while it is still hot.
