Classic restaurant fare is super fast and super delicious. All you need is a few minutes, a skillet and some shrimp, garlic and olive oil for starters.

Expert Tips

This succulent shrimp dish is good as is, and it's also delicious served over hot cooked rice or fettuccine.

Shrimp is very perishable. Store it uncooked in the refrigerator no longer than 1 to 2 days.

Cook the shrimp only 2 to 3 minutes, stirring frequently. Shrimp will turn pink when done.

This was not one of my better scampi recipes. I added some red pepper flakes, and a little Montreal steak seasoning to give it more flavor. After doing that it was better
