Elevated Shrimp Scampi
This shrimp scampi is so easy to make, and so tasty. I use a garlic butter white wine sauce that really makes this an elevated scampi and a one-pan meal is always welcome in my home. I am also sharing it with my favorite gluten free pasta, so this whole meal is gluten free! I love to think of this one as restaurant quality, being made at home!

- Cook pasta according to package instructions.
- Heat a large skillet until hot on medium heat. Add olive oil. Add shrimp without overcrowding. Sprinkle shrimp with seasonings (Italian seasoning, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper).
- Cook shrimp, flipping it once or twice, on medium heat, about 3-4 minutes total, until pink in color. Do not overcook. Your shrimp should make the letter C (for cooked). Don’t let them close and look like an O (overcooked).
- Remove shrimp from the skillet.
- For the sauce (sometimes I’ll make the sauce earlier in the day to let the flavors sit together, but not necessary):
- Add minced garlic, lemon juice, and white wine to the same skillet where you cooked the shrimp and deglaze the pan. Reduce heat, and cook until the sauce reduces just a bit and the garlic is softened - about 2 or 3 minutes. Remove from heat and fold in butter, letting it melt in the sauce.
- Add cooked shrimp and 2 tablespoons of capers to the skillet with the lemon garlic butter sauce and stir it to reheat on low heat. When serving, top with the remaining (or more) capers. Squeeze a little bit of lemon juice over the shrimp if you like.
