Shrimp Scampi

Recipe from Adam, super easy and very delicious.

Ingredients:

  • 2  tablespoons butter
  • 2  tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 4  garlic cloves, minced
  • ½  cup dry white wine or broth
  • ¾  teaspoon kosher salt, or to taste
  • ⅛  teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, or to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 ¾  pounds large or extra-large shrimp, shelled
  • ⅓  cup chopped parsley
  • Freshly squeezed juice of half a lemon
  • 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, salt, red pepper flakes and plenty of black pepper and bring to a simmer. Let wine reduce by half, about 2 minutes.

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.

Clarkson Family Recipe Book

I’ve been wanting to digitize the recipes handed down from my Grammie for years. Lately me, my dad, and my brother have struggled to find a way to share recipes—we hate having to slog through the minefields of ad-ladden recipe blogs and sponsored websites where you can only visit once before you have to pay. I decided that the perfect solution to this headache—and the best way to preserve these family recipes—was through a website. Welcome to this place where the recipes have been tested and found true, where nothing is perfect but always yummy, where good food helps make a place a home.
