Quick Shrimp Scampi

 I like this simple scampi over a plate of fresh pasta with some good bread to soak up the extra sauce.

Ingredients:

1 pound large shelled and deveined shrimp
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons butter
salt
1 tablespoon minced garlic
red pepper flakes
1/2 cup white wine
2 tablespoons chopped parsley
black pepper
lemon juice

Directions:
  • Heat a saute pan on medium high heat.  Melt butter and oil.  Sprinkle with a little salt
  • Add garlic and a few red pepper flakes.  Saute for just a minute
  • Add shrimp and wine.  Stir to coat the shrimp with the sauce
  • Increase heat to high and boil the wine for two to three minutes
  • Stir shrimp flipping them over.  Cook for another minute
  • Remove pan from heat and sprinkle with parsley, lemon juice and pepper. Toss
Yield:  Three to four servings
