- Shrimp scampi is a delicious pasta dish with a lemon, butter, garlic, and white wine sauce! Join Eric from Simply Elegant Home Cooking as he demonstrates this easy but delicious recipe! One of the keys is to avoid over cooking your shrimp! That will cause them to become rubbery. The shrimp scampi is taken to the next level by the addition of an Italian white wine, as well as red pepper flakes for a little bit of heat!
Ingredients:
-1 lb large shrimp
-1 lb pasta (linguine or spaghetti work best)
-4 tb extra virgin olive oil
-4 tb butter
-1 lemon
-1/3 c Italian white wine
-3 cloves garlic
-1/4 ts red pepper flakes
-1 large handful chopped Italian parsley
-Salt & pepper
Directions:
-Remove the shrimp from the fridge 30 minutes before you plan to cook. During this time, remove the shell but leave on the tail, and remove the vein from the shrimp.
-Preheat a large pot of water on high heat until a rapid boil is reached. Generously salt the water, and add the pasta. Cook according to the directions for al dente.
-The shrimp and sauce can be cooked at the same time as the pasta. Once the pasta is cooking, preheat a large pan over medium heat. Once the pan comes up to temperature, season your shrimp generously with salt and pepper, add 2 tablespoons of olive oil to the pan, and cook the shrimp for about 2 1/2 minutes, stirring often. It is very important not to overcook the shrimp as they will continue to cook once added back to the sauce.
-Once cooked mostly through, remove the shrimp and set aside on a plate. Turn off the heat and add an additional 2 tablespoons of olive oil to the same pan. This will bring down the temperature which is important to avoid burning the garlic. Add in the sliced garlic and red pepper flakes and turn the burner back on but only to medium low heat. Cook for about 1 1/2 minutes, stirring constantly.
-After garlic is cooked but not browned, deglaze the pan by adding in the Italian white wine. Turn the heat up to medium and bring to a light boil.
-Once a boil is achieved, zest the lemon into them sauce, then juice half the lemon into the sauce.
-Once the linguine is cooked, turn off the heat on the pasta water and transfer pasta into the sauce. Do not rinse or drain! Be sure to stir everything around as you go.
-Add back in the shrimp, and add in the butter and most of the chopped Italian parsley. Turn heat down to low and stir until butter is emulsified into the sauce.
-Serve the shrimp scampi and garnish with the remaining parsley
-Enjoy!
I've made this many times and not only is it elegant it is awesomley delicious! thanks Eric, Israel Perez viewing from Guatemala, C.A.😋👌👨🍳
I made it for my wife and she loved it so easy thank you
What a delightful way to prepare shrimp! Your blend of seasoning ingredients is a winner.
Thanks! I use a lot of red pepper flakes for my shrimp scampi (and most things that I cook)!
I made this for dinner tonight and it was great- light and rich at the same time. And the shrimp were perfect. Definitely a keeper!
Thanks! The recipe is simple but so delicious.
when the garlic and red pepper flakes where bathing in that olive oil...that was heaven rigth there!
Yes! The oil itself becomes so flavorful and absorbs all those flavors!
I just made this recipe and it came out great!!! It's so simple. I don't even have to write the recipe down, I can remember it by heart!!!I looked at Gordon Ramsey's video to compare and decided your was easier and I had all the ingredients already, except the wine and parsley. I just added a little apple vinegar, fish sauce, and scallions instead. Eating and writing now. It's delicious! Even my mom likes it and she usually refuses to eat anything I cook the first time. Thank you!!! 👍💕💕
fish sauce? You must be vietnamese or like viet food?
Hmm sounds good, maybe an Asian type of variation?
@@asianangler I'm African-American, but I rented a room from a Vietnamese student in University of Florida in Gainesville. When she went back to CA, I got all her leftover kitchen ingredients. I looked up how to use them and boy was it tasty!!!👍😉😂👌
That looks delicious. And quick cooking once the shrimp is prepped. The lemon zest and juice will enhance the dish. I love shrimp!
Shrimp are delicious and yes they cook so fast!
Thank you for the detailed instructions! Great shrimp!
You're welcome!
Wonderful. Pasta with shrimps looks delicious
Pasta and shrimp is such a perfect combo!
Great recipe! Added scallops and capers to the dish and it was also delicious!

Haha thanks Pete that's how I do it!
I made this dish , and it is really heaven , those flavours are really the max !! What a dish , and so simple !!!
Thanks! Yes, many Italian dishes work like that...you use just a handful of really high quality ingredients and the results are phenomenal!
Definitely one of my favorite dishes. We make a ton at the restaurant and I make it often at home.
Yea this is a restaurant quality dish, but still easy enough for home cooks!
Instablaster

I make mine with arugula, cherry tomatoes and parmesan and it’s equally as good as this recipe of yours. Thanks for sharing! 😊
That sounds great, actually! I might give it a try myself!

Love all your recipies!!!!..mil gracias👍🤗🤗🤗
Awesome dish and presentation! Making this very soon and just subscribed.
Thanks! Glad to have ya!
This was truly delicious. Thank you. Wish that I could show a picture. I topped our steaks with noodles (twisted around my hand for presentation) with the shrimp and sauce on top. It was great! The only thing I will cut back on next time is the red pepper flakes as mine was just a little too overbearing to enjoy the other flavors this dish deserves. But hey, my fault as I never measure anything when I cook - LOL. Thank you again for sharing and helping in this meal.
Wow thanks for the comment! I am glad you were happy with the results!
@@SimplyElegantHomeCooking My pleasure. Again, it is delicious!

@@SimplyElegantHomeCooking I loved it❤❤❤❤
Dude slurping down that shrimp sounds like a dirty movie
Lol maybe you should get your mind out of the gutter!
Well it sounded to me like a hog slopping his food. Grosses me out to hear people eat like that. Ruins the recipe as well.
It was pretty bad! 😂😂
Yummy yummy thank you so mush
Most welcome 😊
WHAT A DELICIOUS PLATE OF FOOD MAKES ME HUNGRY THANK YOU HAPPY MEALTIME
Very simple n tasty 😋 great dish I made n family love it 😍
Thanks! I make this one for my family all the time!
Thank you sir; one of my fav meals.☺️
Thanks! It's one of my favorites too!
Dude! The salt in the pasta water!!!! Holy Moses.......that's a lotta salt 😮😮😮 the rest of the recipe looks amazing 😋
Looks so good 👌👍
One of my fav dish ;) simple and easy to make but its so flavorful ;)
Yea this one is super simple, but satisfying!
Delicious
Congratulations!
Thanks!
Oh man. This looks so good 😋
Thanks, Lasse! it is good but super simple!
I will do it now
Hope you enjoyed!
@@SimplyElegantHomeCooking yes very enjoy
is is possible to do without the wine or a substitute? other than that great video! it looks so delicious i would love to try it!!!!
Yes you can just omit the wine and it will still turn out nicely.
Looks so good! Great video!
Mmmm yum yum
Haha, yes it was really tasty!
Looks Good ❤️
Thanks!
Looks great, but somehow I know it may not end up being that easy, I'll have to try it.
Really nice video bud
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed!
I'm impressed
So i am going to subscribe
Glad you enjoyed, thanks!
The dish was beautiful. Can I please make a suggestion though...when you are eating could you please turn your microphone off? The noise of you masticating on your meal is a bit off putting...but the recipe is brilliant and obviously a traditional one. For its simplicity and taste its worth 5 stars 🤌
Lol yea I’ve heard about the eating sounds a time or two, believe me! Thanks for watching and glad you liked the recipe.
Thank you for the recipe. Why keep the shells on the tails? I would take those off, so I wouldn’t have to touch them when I eat the pasta
This looks excellent!! 😋 Great video!!
Wow! So simple! Am going to try this for sure! But I like my pasta to be a bit cheesy. Would adding cheese spoil this?
Hmm I think if you added some Parmigiano Reggiano at the end it would work well!
@@SimplyElegantHomeCooking Cheers!
Did you add pasta water?
I add muscles to mine to intensify the flavor.
Oh yes that would definitely go well too. I have been thinking about putting out a seafood pasta using muscles.
Looks DELICIOUS I will make this tomorrow. I don’t have dry white wine, it’s more on the sweeter side YELLOWTAIL hopes that’s ok?
Yellowtail will work for this.
This is fantastic!!
Can you do a nachos recipe please?
Oh wow believe it or not I've never made my own nachos! I will have to research that and get back with you!
Great recipe 👌.
I don't consume alcohol, what can I replace it with?
Just a little extra lemon juice will work well in place of the wine.
@@SimplyElegantHomeCooking ok. Great, thanks 😊
Was your noodles salty? I've never used that much.
They were...you can certainly use less salt than I did.
@@SimplyElegantHomeCooking 😂🙌
I can hear you tasting it........ 🙃 you made it sound good
Thanks! It was delicious!
Mmm que rico!
Really simple and right to the point. Although, that was actually an insane amount of salt 🙈🙈🙈 but overall, great video
Haha yes you can definitely cut back on the salt!
I don't have a zester or whatever it is called to zest a lemon. I do have lemons for the juice though. Will the result be the same if I choose to not add lemon zest? If not I will totally get one
It won't ruin the dish if you don't use the zest but the zester is only a few dollars so I'd recommend getting one. And they are great for other applications too!
I woulda took off the tails.. I’d hate for a guest to feel messy if they had to take the tails off
Yes the shrimp tails are pretty but they get in the way I agree with you.
looks amazing... what can i use to replace the wine?
Chicken or seafood stock would work well.
@@SimplyElegantHomeCooking thank you :)
yummmm E
Thanks!
You can use your tongs while you're cooking too.
Thanks, sometimes I forget the simple things when filming.
why wait till the pasta and shrimp are in to add the butter?
It helps to emulsify the sauce into a creamy consistency
I need that stainless steel sauce pan! 😪 what brand is it?
That is an All Clad Copper Core pan and the shape of the pan is called their Essential Pan. It is perfect for making sauces then adding in the pasta to finish in the sauce. It is top of the line but you can sometimes find 20% off sale on the pan at Williams Sonoma.
@@SimplyElegantHomeCooking thanks for the info and thanks for responding.
❤
Could you use frozen cooked shrimp
Frozen is fine but I would recommend starting with raw shrimp for best results.
Can I use cooked frozen shrimp
Yes it would still work, just might need to adjust the cooking time a bit.
Would sweet wine ruin it? Or maybe a little bit of sweetness is tolerable for this one..?
Hmm it probably wouldn't ruin it since it just adds a subtle flavor but I think I prefer the dry Italian white wines.
why leave the tails on the shrimp? i never understood this.
Some find it to look nice but yea it is kind of a pain to eat them, I don't know why I did it!
@@SimplyElegantHomeCooking i wasnt doggin you, i just wonder why when i buy them the tails are still on the shrimp and in all restaurants the tails are left on? i made and enjoyed the dinner. yes i left the tails on and my wife laughed at me.
Super healthy??
I don't think pasta can be considered a health food but if you want a healthier option you can use zucchini noodles in place of the pasta. I have a video for that version too.
I don't add salt because the butter is salted
Yea it is a personal taste. There is also salt in the pasta water so you can omit the extra salt if you feel it has got enough already from the butter.
Be sure to add some pasta water to help emulsify the sauce!
There was some water since i didn't rinse or even drain the pasta but yea...it's very important!
Lmao this guy put in a whole salt mine into the boiling water
Lolol yes it got away from me there a bit but you want it very salty!
How many people does this serve ?
I'd say 4 people could eat well but you can always cut the recipe in half or double it too.
I think it needs butter sauce. Looks really dry. If you are adding butter go full in.
There was plenty of butter in there, I just add it at the end so that it emulsifies.
how about putting some cheese on that spaghetti , i'm sure it would taste better
You can definitely do that but some people really don't like mixing cheese with seafood.
What can I use instead of shrimp ? Vegetarian option ?
Hmm, perhaps a mixture of vegetables like cherry tomatoes along with any green vegetable.
We’re is the recipe?? How much butter, how much parsley???
Best tip folks, add your butter once the wine reduces a bit, whisk it to make an emulsion THEN add your pasta shrimp and some reserved pasta water. This looks really dry
Hmm I think it makes for a creamier texture when added later but that method also does work well too.
You let the pasta sit and wait for the sauce???😮
Mine turns out failed because I didn’t drain the pasta right and it’s too watery
Don't be afraid to let it thicken in the pot once you combine the sauce with the pasta. That is how I remedy when it looks a little watery.
Like👍👍👍💝
Glad you enjoyed!
Those are the skinniest shrimp I've ever seen!
Hmm it might have just been the camera angle or something, they were large shrimp according to the seafood counter.
Damn that amount of salt with the pasta
Yea it kinda got away from me there you can definitely use less salt.
For my gusto to much oil and butter
You can definitely use less, I hear ya!
Italian parsley... Come on... 😅
That was perfect until the horrible smacking sounds of eating it.
There's something about this tendency in people to eat on mic on RUclips.
Beautiful dish, violence inducing smacking.
Lol believe me I have received this feedback many times I try to do better!
@@SimplyElegantHomeCooking Now I feel awful!:))
No, but thank you for your video because seriously; the mere look of the finished product is so craving inducing.
It's funny about the eating sound thing though, because I recently saw that it's a whole thing on RUclips (I know, what is going on in the world?)
Anyway, apparently there are people who eat on camera, up close... & people watch/listen to it.
Unbelievable, but that's where we are!
By the way, my shrimp scampi came out tasting pretty amazing, but bore zero resemblance to your lip smacking masterpiece:))
