This is a brilliant recipe from beginning to end. From sauteing the shells to mixing lemon juice with cornstarch which creates a sauce not merely greasy butter. Even better to have that sauce when serving it over linguine. And the white wine is an absolute must in this dish. Brining the shrimp first is another little technique that adds that sweetness to the shrimp. Wonderful lesson on shrimp scampi. Thank you
I just made this for my fiancé and her grandparents!!!!! Took a risk because it’s not my usual recipe. I was sick of not getting enough depth and balance in my sauce and finally came across this recipe. It’s perfect. My partner prefers a more sautéed/grilled type of shrimp so I’m going to experiment with that next time. But, THIS is FINALLY the sauce I’ve been trying to make! I’m amazed. We finished every last bite even after I thought I’ve made a little too much. Very grateful for this recipe.
Really liked this cooking class. I was nine when my mom started teaching me how to cook. Between her and my Grandma I learned a lot of basics. Baked my first pie [pecan] and oatmeal cookies when I was 12. I am 70 yo now and still learning from cooking women. When I was in Jr high, I wanted to take home making, but because I was a boy they said I COULDN'T. They thought they were so smart back then and used their social cookie cutter as to what we children were suppose to be. From high school on, most girls weren't learning how to cook; they were college bound and looking for a husband who could care less if they could cook. As a scout leader, I cooked when it was my time to cook for the other leaders on camp outs. And I was practicing on dishes the other times on a camp fire or cook stove, dutch ovens, Coleman collapsing oven. I took gourmet dishes from the kitchen to the campfire, with great success; this inspired the boys to think outside of the box for camp site meals. I made sure they did their own figuring of money and buying what they needed to create their meals for the camp out. So, thank you for these videos and the parts where you explain why things are done the way they are. MK
Thanks for sharing William. What a special memory to have been able to cook with your mom. My mother wouldn’t let me cook with her. So count your blessings.
I was In Jr High in the Mid 70's. Funny thing is that all the males, myself included took home ec. I think it had to do with making cookies and cake and eating during the day.
Right on from a fellow scouter! We want our Youth to learn to cook what they like to eat-anywhere, even on the campfire! Thanks for letting me know I’m not alone in this.
Living here in Louisiana and having beautiful large shrimp at a very reasonable cost, I used more shrimp in this recipe and tweaked the proportions, and I also served it over my homemade spaghetti. This recipe uses a tradition of Cajun cooks throughout South Louisiana, and that is the use of the shells of crustaceans as the base of a broth. Following all the steps in this video adds such a greater depth of flavor to the final dish. I made this on several occasions, and each time it resulted in a Five Star (*****) meal. Thank you for sharing this outstanding recipe. Chef William
William, I just stumbled upon this recipe - looks fabulous. I really appreciated your comments, as I live in New Orleans. I will do exactly what you did. Many thanks
This recipe sent me to the hospital. I followed the directions, and did everything to a " T " and at the end even licked the pan dry. That's how I got 3rd degree burns on my tongue. WORTH IT !!!
"Always start from the bottom to the top, that's how you reach success..." came here for Shrimp Scampi tips, received higher life tips instead! Love that chef!
@ Sometimes they cook it too long and it has a bitter taste that doesnt mesh well with the lemony sauces. They think they're smart by drowning it in cream.
I tried it. It turned out so good - we'll be having this again on Christmas Eve! I've made Shrimp Scampi about a thousand times in my life - this was the best. I think the brining made it go over the top.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Elle! She is my favorite of the test cooks. She has an effervescent personality and is so funny. Her way of presenting the recipe and results are easy to follow and her smile is infectious. Keep up the great work, Elle!
This is the BEST SHRIPM SCAMPI recipe EVER. I had a similar version at a popular restaurant and thought they had the reining best. When I saw this recipe I knew it was going to be like the one I already felt was the best. And I was so correct. I make a homemade sour dough bread that I toast till crunchy and dip in the sauce as I enjoy this recipe. THANK YOU SO MUCH TEST KITCHEN.
Best cooking show on TV. Your chefs are not only amazingly adept they are also among the best personalities in the business. Your 2 leads and the supporting members feel like family. Your recipes are so well explained. When copying a recipe from your site, I find it easy to follow and they always come out just as you showed. Your recipes have made me a rock star in my family. Cooks Country and you are perfection.
I made this last month for me and my son and it was the best shrimp scampi we’d ever ate! Using the shells to create the stock and poaching the shrimp made all the difference in the world! Thank you so much for this video.
This was perfect! Also the sauce holds together because of the cornstarch, in case you don’t eat immediately. I cut the garlic, 2 cloves. Also used 1/4 tspn red pepper flakes. We are lightweights now. I didn’t have wine, used chicken stock. Sorry I changed so many ingredients but... it was freaking delicious!
This was the comment I was looking for. We don’t drink wine and have never bought it, so I was curious what sort of substitute I could use for the wine. I’ll try chicken stock! Thank you.
I finally stumbled across this video and I am glad I did. I served it over linguine and it was the bomb! My wife can’t stand garlic but she didn’t complain once. I will be making this every week for sure. Thanks 😊
I made this for my hubby's birthday dinner, and it was amazing!!! I added a little more butter and served it over pasta family style. It was just as good or better than olive garden. Amazing!!!!
I made this last night for the first time, really delicious. The tip about extracting the flavor from the shrimp shells to use in the sause is fantastic. Thank you!
I made this tonight for my wife and it was absolutely AMAZING! The red pepper flakes gave it a nice kick (just enough without being too much). I could never order shrimp scampi at a restaurant after making this better than restaurant-quality recipe at home! Seriously, soooo good!!!
this one is a keeper!!!! since I've tried this recipe, I always buy shrp with the shells on, like shrp ckt, & I save the shells in the freezer, so when I make the shrimp scampi I have extra shrimp skins for the stock, more flavor, love this recipe, you need a little more sause to place it over linquini or rice. so save those shells.
As always the TEST KITCHEN comes through with another fab recipe....We have your giant 20 years of test kitchen recipes and it's the most comprehensive recipe book ever. Keep up the good work!
I’ve prepared this for family and friends at least a dozen times and ended up doubling the “sauce” portion of the recipe. It’s SO good- everyone wants more, even after the shrimp is gone. If you like shrimp, you will LOVE this recipe. And I love the comment about pairing with linguini. I have to try that next.
First, is linguine. Second, why not to add a ton more of garlic to destroy even the last remaining taste of these dreadful cheap shrimps? And third.... Where the f* the scampi are? Scampi are langoustines, is it possible to be so incredibly ignorant?

I've made this recipe 3 times already and I love it. I think the wine sauce using the shrimp shells and the poaching instead of frying makes the biggest difference. As others have said, this sauce is outstanding when the shrimp are served over fresh pasta. I love it.
Great recipe, thanks. For over 30 years I’ve put all the shrimp shells in a bowl, added either very dry Spanish sherry or Noilly Prat and microwaved for a couple of minutes. The resultant “juice” is to die for!
Watched this video this morning. Went to the market for shrimp this afternoon and made the dish. BEST shrimp scampi I’ve ever eaten!! And I live on the gulf coast!
I just made this, this evening. Wish I could share a pic! Paired it with Basmati Rice. It was soooo freakin’ good!! Definitely in culinary repertoire now!😋
Oh. WOW! Just watched and recreated this recipe. THE BEST SHRIMP!! Smooth, silky, tender - why oh why have I been sautéing my seafood?!?! Thank you so much for this recipe and more importantly, the proper cooking method/procedure. Cheers!
I have tried A few of the test kitchen recipes and they have not failed me yet everyone that I have tried have been amazing thank you for your RUclips videos
Elle`s recipe for shrimp risotto was so good, I can`t wait to try this one . I have learned so much from ATK over the years you even taught me how to properly cook a steak TYVM . Thank You for all you give us !
America's Test Kitchen, I missed you! I used to watch you all the time before I gave up cable a couple years ago. Now that I know you're on RUclips, I'll stop by. 😀👍
WOW, WOW, WOW. One of my FAVORITE dishes. I didn't know ATK was on RUclips. I can no longer afford to have any satellite service; but I used to watch the show religiously. It was so good to see Julia and this new (to me) friend Elle tame this tricky recipe. And at the very end, a treat to see Bridget. THANK YOU so much. PS. I clicked on "subscribe" and I want to see EVERY one of the episodes. Please make more, more, more.
You two make a great teaching team! I will try this and get back with you. I love shrimp and may just put this on top of some penne for additional depth. Thank you!
Wow that was amazing Thankyou. We live in country Gayndah in Queensland Australia. To go to where we might purchase prawns which my Husband Colin and I love to bits it would take 2.5-3 hours drive. We can buy very good quality seafood just a day or two from the ocean. We have a “Fisho” who comes to us each fortnight. He brings to us prawns, oysters and all kinds of beautiful reef fish. Colin is away at Fraser Island which is a drive away, a car barge, then a few hours drive depending on whether or not the sand is soft or not making the beach drive an extra hour or so to the camp he and his friends stay at. There they collect what we call “pippies” which are are smooth shelled clams or cockles which they use for bait to fish for a wide variety of fish right from the beach in front of their camp. I am so looking forward to making this delicious dish for him tomorrow when he returns from his fishing trip. Thank you again Marianne Boot
Poured on top of angel hair pasta, shaved parmigiana with crusty french baguette, a cold glass of chardonnay...😍😍😍 I'm calling Luigi's Italiano for tonight's reservations.
Love the teaching element/learning of cooking. Once you get the knowledge behind the recipe, tell why and how. To me , I remember the recipe! I simply love the American testing, thank you.
Hi! I am in southeast Louisiana, about 55 miles saw of New Orleans, close to a LOT of water! One of this area’s biggest resource is shrimping. We always have shrimp. Mostly we buy a lot from right off the boats, then peel, and freeze them. Anyway, I am so going to try this recipe. I love shrimp scampi and now I shudder at the beautiful shrimp stock I never made because we just throw the shells in the bayou! No more! I will make the broth and freeze it! Thank you!
I am such a fan and believer of this great foodie website, - they test cook everything so thoroughly, and then show us novices, the very best way to cook, Thank you.
Absolutely delicious!!! I added a few medium scallops to the shrimp and poured the scampi sauce on my steak for our surf and turf meal. Thank you for showing us a way to make sweet and tender shrimp iso the rubbery sautéed varieties- brava!!!
We made this and it was amazing! We made 2 pounds of shrimp and by the halfway point, my husband and I were completely full but that didn’t stop us from eating the rest! Delicious!
You had me at your baked potato recipe Elle, but this.....wow. The water, salt and sugar brine ratio alone is worth it just for it by itself. The rest is nirvana!! Thanks Mz. Elle.
Made this last night with spaghetti and held up on using capers and it was magnificent. Thanks chef Ramsey for such and easy weeknight dish that I will add to my repetoire.
Just made your delicious recipe and wanted to say Thank you! It was a hit at dinner. It sure makes a difference brining the shrimp and making the broth using the shrimp shells. I’m going to try your perfect baked potato recipe tomorrow!!
I can’t wait to try this. My husband recently realized he actually likes shrimp after having scampi for the first time at a restaurant. This will be excellent
I dont cook. But this is the first one i want to try. I like how you explain things indetail because for anon cook like me it is everything. Thank you.
My 1st time seeing chef Ella in action. Like her & the shrimp scampi recipe. Hope to see her in more Test Kitchen videos. I think the shrimp scampi can be a good appetizer or side dish. Thx, American Test Kitchen!
I’m not a cook but I try this to get out of the rutine. I did some mistakes and took me longer than expected but at the end I got to the point. Delicious...thanks so much. Best ever
Absolutely love this channel... Everything is explained so well and I like the fact that the test kitchen does all the research so we don't have to... Keep those videos coming!!
100% the best scampi recipe. Love how flavors are layered, that stock was a killer idea and that corn starch was a great tip. I've made a ton of scampies, I will for sure make this my new secret recipe. Thank you ladies!!!

Love the teaching element/learning of cooking. Once you get the knowledge behind the recipe, tell why and how. To me , I remember the recipe! I simply love the American testing, thank you.
Lovely! I've never had my sauce break, but getting those shrimp so they aren't overcooked, was nice to see how it's done.
Best shrimp 🍤 scampi I ever made. Family voted 20/10. I concur.
Between the three of us not much is left.
Yes, yes, yes! It's Elle and Julia cooking again! We love it when these 2 are on screen showing us how to make great dishes! 😀
Awesome! Can't wait to try this! All tips/disclosures were right on point. These ladies know their way around the kitchen for sure. Thanks!
Wow! I just added another technique to my growing arsenal of skills. I can’t wait to impress my family and friends! Thank you.
Hello
Hi! I am in southeast Louisiana, about 55 miles saw of New Orleans, close to a LOT of water! One of this area’s biggest resource is shrimping. We always have shrimp. Mostly we buy a lot from right off the boats, then peel, and freeze them. Anyway, I am so going to try this recipe. I love shrimp scampi and now I shudder at the beautiful shrimp stock I never made because we just throw the shells in the bayou! No more! I will make the broth and freeze it! Thank you!
I have to say that all these ATK videos are Fantastic.
We've been trying several recipes and this is THE ONE. Brining, using the shells and the right combo of thickening makes it all come together!
I have truly missed 👀 this show. Always so useful. Keep the tricks coming team.
I am such a fan and believer of this great foodie website, - they test cook everything so thoroughly, and then show us novices, the very best way to cook, Thank you.
Wow! I'm so thankful you do the homework for us, and figure out what works best, I can't wait to try this!
Absolutely delicious!!! I added a few medium scallops to the shrimp and poured the scampi sauce on my steak for our surf and turf meal. Thank you for showing us a way to make sweet and tender shrimp iso the rubbery sautéed varieties- brava!!!
I always love America's Test Kitchen recipes!
We made this and it was amazing! We made 2 pounds of shrimp and by the halfway point, my husband and I were completely full but that didn’t stop us from eating the rest! Delicious!
This truly is the best Shrimp Shrimp recipe, Well done ladies!
You had me at your baked potato recipe Elle, but this.....wow. The water, salt and sugar brine ratio alone is worth it just for it by itself. The rest is nirvana!! Thanks Mz. Elle.
elle's scampi recipe is OUT OF THIS WORLD! love the cooking the skins tip - and the lemon and corn starch tip too - thanks.
Made this last night with spaghetti and held up on using capers and it was magnificent. Thanks chef Ramsey for such and easy weeknight dish that I will add to my repetoire.
Can’t wait to try this. You people are wonderful, you do a great job ,thank you!
I am so excited about making the shrimp scampi recipe made by Elle. Thank you for sharing. Lyn

Elle has topped every Michelin Restaurant worldwide with this simple & elegant Scampi recipe. TYVM for🤗 professional make over on my favorite entree.
Just made your delicious recipe and wanted to say Thank you! It was a hit at dinner. It sure makes a difference brining the shrimp and making the broth using the shrimp shells. I’m going to try your perfect baked potato recipe tomorrow!!
Test kitchen did it again to perfection 👌🏽the 1 I’m trying
Ive made this so many times and its always amazing. Thanx
Best ever! Shrimp well cooked but not rubbery, sauce absolutely delicious!! Will never make it differently....perfection!!
I can’t wait to try this. My husband recently realized he actually likes shrimp after having scampi for the first time at a restaurant. This will be excellent
I made this dish for my family last night. It was wonderful, adding to our dinner rotation
I would be honored to sit at Elle's table. If I could follow her around a kitchen... I hit the jackpot.
I dont cook. But this is the first one i want to try. I like how you explain things indetail because for anon cook like me it is everything. Thank you.
My 1st time seeing chef Ella in action. Like her & the shrimp scampi recipe. Hope to see her in more Test Kitchen videos. I think the shrimp scampi can be a good appetizer or side dish.
Thx, American Test Kitchen!
Same here. She seems to be a great fit for the test kitchen family! Welcome Chef Ella! 😁
This is one of the best recipes for shrimp I’ve tried. It’s tender and delicious. I have my own dish but this one leaves my shrimp perfect. Ty.
Thank you for this recipe! In all my years, I've never been able to get it right. Now, I know how. I'm going to make this tomorrow!

I’m not a cook but I try this to get out of the rutine. I did some mistakes and took me longer than expected but at the end I got to the point. Delicious...thanks so much. Best ever
Absolutely love this channel... Everything is explained so well and I like the fact that the test kitchen does all the research so we don't have to... Keep those videos coming!!
Forever 'the best" in recipes...straightforward and practical.

100% the best scampi recipe. Love how flavors are layered, that stock was a killer idea and that corn starch was a great tip. I've made a ton of scampies, I will for sure make this my new secret recipe.
Thank you ladies!!!
I love you 2 ladies!!! I watch ya'll all the time on Pluto tv
