Classic Shrimp Scampi



Cook Time: 15 minutesServings: Yield 4 servingsSource: Cooking.nytimes.com

Ingredients

2 tablespoons butter

4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

4 garlic cloves, minced

½ cup dry white wine or 1/2 cup broth

¾ teaspoon kosher salt, or to taste

â…› teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, or to taste

Freshly ground black pepper

1 ¾ pounds large or extra-large shrimp, shelled

â…“ cup chopped parsley

Freshly squeezed juice of half a lemon

parmigiana reggiano or percorino romano cheese

Cooked pasta or crusty bread

Directions

In a large skillet, melt butter with olive oil. Add garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add wine or broth, or both, salt, red pepper flakes and plenty of black pepper and bring to a simmer. Let wine reduce by half, about 2 minutes. ( i let wine reduce before i add broth)

Add shrimp and sauté until they just turn pink, 2 to 4 minutes depending upon their size. Stir in the parsley and lemon juice and serve over pasta or accompanied by crusty bread.
Sprinkle cheese of your choice on top.

Notes

I actually double or triple the sauce and reserve it to toss with the pasta so the pasta isn't dry.
