I love this shrimp scampi pasta recipe! Buttery, zesty and so satisfying… If you want to add more lemon wine butter and garlic to this recipe I certainly won’t stop you!
I love using spaghetti but if you want to sub in your favorite pasta to make linguini shrimp scampi for example then go ahead! If you’d like to try making your own pasta from scratch
ABOUT THE SHRIMP
I bought some super-fresh jumbo shrimp to make this dish and they made all the difference! Don’t use frozen precooked shrimp to make this recipe, the taste and texture will be subpar.
Cleaning, or deveining shrimp can seem a bit intimidating so I wanted to go over the process.
Start by removing the shell. You can peel it off from the bottom where the little swimmeretes are.
Once the shell is removed use a small knife to make a roughly 1/4″ deep cut down the top of the shrimp.
Now you should be able to see a small vein which you can pull out using your fingers.
That’s it! If you’re having difficulty you can cut a bit deeper and use a knife to help remove the “vein” which is actually the shrimp’s digestive tract.

Yum, but I think I would have tossed my pasta in that yummy garlic butter sauce before serving for extra flavor.

I’ve been making this for years. It’s much better when you slightly bump up the oil, butter, wine, lemon juice ratio so that you have enough liquid left to toss in pasta before plating. Always add more garlic than called for.

I like how he uses things that you would have in your home instead of using a recipe that calls for an ultra mixer 3000 and ancient mushrooms found 30 meters below Egypt.

Definitely would've thrown my pasta in the pan for the last cooking minute with all that yummy garlic and olive oil omg

He has such an innocent personality. I feel like I could not cuss around him

I wait for the spirit of my ancestors to tell me to stop when I am measuring how much garlic to use XDXDXD

Hi John I love this shrimp recipe. The shrimp are very expensive here in New Zealand, but sometime I treat myself to some shrimp, I usually just bake it in the oven, but I cooked using this recipe, it's beautiful, I think I will treat myself a bit more often now. THANK YOU.
