Shrimp Scampi (our version)
This is a very easy meal to make!
Be sure to buy the freshest shrimp you can find. We have a seafood
store locally that brings in really fresh fish and seafood. The shrimp is
always much better quality and fresher when purchased there!
1 lb. of shrimp (you can double this if needed)
Fresh cilantro chopped
White wine
Fresh garlic (about 1 to 2 medium cloves to taste) sliced, chopped or minced (I use the garlic zoom featured here)
Olive oil
Fresh cracked pepper
Remove shells and clean the shrimp.
Heat a couple of TBS. of olive oil in a skillet. (we use the side burner on the grill when cooking seafood sometimes to keep the house from getting all stinky!)
Saute the shrimp for a few minutes then add the cracked pepper & garlic. Saute for another couple of minutes then pour in the white wine
and simmer for another few minutes.
I love this recipe served over nice hot fluffy Jasmine rice!
And as shown in the photo it goes very well with fresh cooked brussel sprouts!
Bona petit!
