Shrimp scampi is a recipe that sounds super fancy (and they charge a fortune for at a restaurant), but it's very easy to make. The delicate shrimp are bathed in a buttery garlic sauce. You really taste the paprika, cayenne, and celery salt of Old Bay seasoning. Crushed pepper does give the dish a nice kick of spice. Shrimp scampi is typically served with linguine, but we loved the white rice. It really soaks up the butter sauce.

How to Make Shrimp Scampi
- Optional - I sometimes stir in a can of French cut green beans which is always delicious.
- Note: If you double this recipe do not double the Old Bay or red pepper. If you do, it will be a very hot and spicy dish.
