If you’re looking for shrimp scampi pasta, serve this recipe with angel hair, linguini, or even fettuccine. We highly recommend serving alongside plenty of crusty bread to soak up every last drop of the delicious garlic-butter sauce. We use a bit of dry white wine and lemon zest to add some depth to the sauce, while parsley also provides a much needed herbal pop. Lemon juice, garlic, and butter make up a simple but extremely flavorful scampi sauce, but we’ve also added a few extra ingredients for more complexity. The shrimp is the main event, so in this recipe, it's treated as such. This dish is distinctly American though and is made using plump, pink shrimp and usually served over a heaping bowl of pasta however, sometimes the pasta can detract from the delectable simplicity of this dish. The name is a little redundant as scampi is the Italian word for langoustines (delicious shrimp-like crustaceans that are commonly found off the Italian coast). Shrimp scampi is an Italian-American dish that can be found in Italian restaurants throughout the country. Requiring ingredients you most likely already have on hand, shrimp scampi is a weeknight savior (or dinner party main!) that is truly always satisfying, no matter how you serve it. These flavors show up in countless of our favorite weeknight dinners and steak recipes, but they really get to shine in homemade shrimp scampi. The almost sweet acidity of the lemon pairs perfectly with the toasty and pungent flavor of the garlic, and both are enhanced by the rich fattiness of the butter. One of our favorite examples? The combo of lemon, garlic, and butter. ![]()
