Shrimp Scampi

Shrimp Scampi

Close to Red Lobster’s flavor. This dish goes great with pasta and fresh french bread

Description

Directions

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Step 2
Peel and devein the shrimp. I like the tails on for presentation, but you can remove them if you wish.
Step 3
Arrange shrimp into a single layer in two shallow baking dishes approximately 4 inches by 5 inches. Any shallow oven safe dish will work. You may have to use less or more shrimp depending on the size.
Step 4
In a saute' pan over medium/high heat add the oil and garlic. Saute' the garlic for 2-3 minutes until is just starts to brown.
Step 5
Add the white wine and freshly squeeze lemon juice. Bring to a boil and then lower the heat and simmer. Reduce till about half.
Step 6
Remove from the heat and add the clarified butter, salt, pepper, parsley and Parmesan cheese.
Step 7
Ladle the liquid over the shrimp. Fill till the shrimp are just barely covered.
Step 8
Place in a preheated 350 degree oven and bake for 7 to 12 mins until shrimp turn pink. The time will depend on the size of shrimp.
Step 9
If you want to have the shrimp slightly browned, transfer them to a hot broiler for 30 seconds before serving.
