  • Use a good quality olive oil: Olive oil is a key ingredient in this dish, so make sure to use a good quality extra virgin olive oil.
  • Add the scampi at the end of cooking: This will help to prevent them from overcooking and becoming tough.
  • Garnish with fresh herbs: Fresh herbs like parsley, basil, or chives add a bright and flavorful touch to this dish.
