Shrimp Scampi Recipe
Ingredients:
Raw shrimp, preferably fresh
Butter
Chopped garlic
Chopped Italian parsley
Lemon infused olive oil
Lemon pepper seasoning
Red pepper flakes
Fresh lemon
Capers
Pecorino cheese
Angel hair pasta
White wine
Directions:
Cook the pasta according to directions on the package and put a lid on it to keep it warm while you prepare the scampi. In a skillet at medium heat, add lemon oil and butter, season the shrimp with the lemon pepper and cook it for proximately one minute per side. Place the shrimp in a separate dish and add more oil and butter to the skillet. Add the chopped garlic and about half of the chopped parsley. Add the white wine, zest from ½ of a lemon, and squeeze in the juice in from the lemon half. Sprinkle with the red pepper flakes. When all of this is blended, add the pasta and mix it thoroughly with the sauce. Add the shrimp back into this and garnish with the remainder of the parsley. Put on a serving plate and sprinkle some capers on it. Then, squeeze more lemon juice directly on the scampi. Grate a liberal portion of pecorino cheese and serve. Bon appétit!
