Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Kosher salt
12 ounces linguine
1 1/4 pounds large shrimp, peeled and deveined
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
5 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/3 cup dry white wine
Juice of 1/2 lemon, plus wedges for serving
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the linguine and cook as the label directs. Reserve 1 cup cooking water, then drain.
  • Meanwhile, season the shrimp with salt. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and red pepper flakes and cook until the garlic is just golden, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Add the shrimp and cook, stirring occasionally, until pink and just cooked through, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Remove the shrimp to a plate. Add the wine and lemon juice to the skillet and simmer until slightly reduced, 2 minutes.
  • Return the shrimp and any juices from the plate to the skillet along with the linguine, butter and 1/2 cup of the reserved cooking water. Continue to cook, tossing, until the butter is melted and the shrimp is hot, about 2 minutes, adding more of the reserved cooking water as needed. Season with salt; stir in the parsley. Serve with lemon wedges.

THE BEST SHRIMP SCAMPI



The Best Shrimp Scampi image

A classic menu item from every great Italian-American restaurant, this shrimp scampi hits all the right notes - buttery, lemony, garlicky. We love it for its simplicity and balance of flavor (copious amounts of butter help, too!). But while it looks and tastes fancy, this dish is actually very easy to make. The white wine sauce gets a spicy finish from red pepper flakes, perfect for soaking up with good crusty bread or cooked pasta.

Categories     main-dish

Time 20m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 pounds jumbo shrimp, peeled, deveined and tails on (see Cook's Note)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon grated garlic (about 3 cloves)
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/3 cup dry white wine
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice from about 1 lemon
1 tablespoon chopped flat-leaf parsley leaves, plus more for garnish
Crusty bread or pasta, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in the skillet. Add half the shrimp and cook until golden pink, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer the shrimp to a bowl. Melt another tablespoon of the butter in the skillet and cook the remaining shrimp.
  • Return the skillet to medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of the butter and let it melt. Add the garlic and red pepper flakes and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
  • Stir in the wine and lemon juice. Increase the heat to high and boil the liquid until it thickens slightly, about 1 minute. Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and the parsley. Add the shrimp back to the skillet and toss to coat with the sauce. Transfer to a serving dish and top with more chopped parsley. Serve with crusty bread or pasta.

CLASSIC SHRIMP SCAMPI



Classic Shrimp Scampi image

Scampi are tiny, lobster-like crustaceans with pale pink shells (also called langoustines). Italian cooks in the United States swapped shrimp for scampi, but kept both names. Thus the dish was born, along with inevitable variations. This classic recipe makes a simple garlic, white wine and butter sauce that goes well with a pile of pasta or with a hunk of crusty bread. However you make the dish, once the shrimp are added to the pan, the trick is to cook them just long enough that they turn pink all over, but not until their bodies curl into rounds with the texture of tires.

Tips:

  • Use fresh shrimp. Frozen shrimp can be used, but fresh shrimp will give the dish a better flavor and texture. Use 2 pounds of shrimp.
  • Clean the shrimp properly. Remove the shells and devein the shrimp. It's best to buy shrimp that has already been cleaned and deveined, but if you're buying shrimp that hasn't been cleaned, you can follow these steps:
    1. Rinse the shrimp under cold water.
    2. Use a sharp knife to cut the shell down the back of the shrimp.
    3. Remove the shell and the vein.
  • Use a large skillet. You'll need a large skillet to cook the shrimp and sauce. A 12-inch skillet is a good size.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet. When cooking the shrimp, don't overcrowd the skillet. If you do, the shrimp will not cook evenly. Cook the shrimp in batches if necessary.
  • Cook the shrimp until they are pink and opaque. Cook the shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are pink and opaque. Do not overcook the shrimp, or they will become tough.
  • Make the sauce while the shrimp is cooking. While the shrimp is cooking, you can make the sauce. The sauce is made with butter, garlic, white wine, and lemon juice. It's a simple sauce, but it's very flavorful.
  • Add the shrimp to the sauce. Once the sauce is made, add the shrimp to the sauce. Stir to combine.
  • Serve the shrimp scampi immediately. Shrimp scampi is a delicious and easy-to-make dish. It's perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion.

Conclusion:

Shrimp scampi is a classic Italian dish that is simple to make and always a crowd-pleaser. The combination of shrimp, garlic, butter, and white wine is irresistible. This recipe for pineapple shrimp scampi adds a unique and tropical twist to the classic dish. The pineapple adds a sweetness and acidity that perfectly complements the shrimp and sauce.
