Shrimps, Shrimpies, Skrimps…Shrimp

Fast, easy, garlicky, olive oily shrimp. This is always a crowd favorite. You can prep the sauce and the shrimp early in the day to make mealtime or entertaining a breeze.

How to Buy Shrimp:

I like wild-caught frozen shrimp. Frozen shrimp are frozen immediately when the fishermen bring them onto their boats, keeping them at their flavor peak. Sprouts has great sales on their Gulf shrimp.

Buy shrimp by the count, not the size. The count is the number of shrimp per pound. Any size will do, but smaller shrimp require less cook time.

This delicious seafood delight features succulent shrimp sautéed in a luscious garlic butter and white wine sauce, often finished with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice and a sprinkle of parsley for a bright, fresh flavor. Typically served over a bed of al dente pasta or accompanied by crusty bread to soak up the savory sauce, shrimp scampi is a perfect blend of rich, buttery goodness and zesty citrus notes. It's a quick and impressive meal that's ideal for both weeknight dinners and special occasions, offering a taste of luxury that's surprisingly simple to whip up.
