I haven't made this, I heard it was really good. I would sprinkle some seasoning on the shrimp though, like Malibu or Shrimp Seasoning.
Shrimp Scampi:
First of all, I remove all shell, except tails from raw shrimp...rinse, pat dry, set aside.
**Or buy fresh shrimp
Chop fresh parsley
Chop 4 cloves garlic or to taste
Melt one stick of butter and about 1/4 cup Olive Oil
Add raw shrimp to the butter/evoo and cook till shrimp "pinks up" - remove to platter using slotted spoon.
To the butter/evoo that is left in the pan, stir in your garlic and parsley and juice of 1/2 lemon. DO NOT BROWN the garlic......just want to heat it up a bit to release flavor.
Pour garlic/butter/parsley mixture over the cooked shrimp on the platter and toss gently to coat all shrimp.
Serve over pasta or couscous.
Also.......make sure to have some nice crusty bread to "clean your plate" with
