spicy shrimp scampi.

hello again, here we are with what is technically the fourth "quickie fake fancy" bka QFF dishes, but since I made no reference to it in the last two posts we'll site this as the second recipe in the series. for those who haven't seen the previous posts, QFF = fresh, light-ish, very low maintenance, simple, delicious, in some cases mostly just assembly but all the same, still allows for the prepare to have airs about them ๐Ÿ’๐Ÿผโ€โ™€๏ธ. It's mostly just easy warm weather recipes to be paired with great wines or sparkling apple ciders. ๐Ÿคฃ

this recipe, very similar to my clams in white wine sauce is the most fabulous 15 minutes of your life. a dish so elegant but one that takes absolutely no effort to execute. pairs well with a warm and sunny day on your patio or fire escape, enjoying a gorgeous white wine to keep you company. like anything made w/ white wine sauces, its incredible over your pasta of choice or just as great for dipping in crusty bread. dealers choice and both are immaculate.

Next time I make this dish I will toast up some panko breadcrumbs with extra parsley (instead of just adding extra at the end),for added flavor and texture.

(serves 2)


grocery list

shrimp - 1-2lbs extra large (peeled and deveined, tails on)

fresno chile - 1-2 (depending heat preference - thinly sliced)

loaf crusty bread - I used ciabatta


things I assume you have on hand

evoo - 2TB (more for drizzling over at the end)

butter - 2TB

s&p - to taste & garnish

RPF - 1/4tsp (more for garnish)

flakey salt - sprinkle for garnish


subs.

method.

๐ŸŒ€in a reasonably sized skillet, melt butter and olive oil. add garlic and chile until just fragrant, followed by wine, s&p and RPF.

๐ŸŒ€simmer and reduce by half (about 2min)

๐ŸŒ€add shrimp and sauce for another 3-4 minutes, stir in parsley and lemon juice.

๐ŸŒ€check for seasoning and be sure to remove when shrimp are just pink. shrimp should look like "C" not "U" or "O".

๐ŸŒ€serve over pasta or crusty loaf bread and enjoy.
