SHRIMP SCAMPI
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...

Steps:
- 1. In frying pan over medium heat melt butter and sauté garlic. Do not brown garlic!!
- 2. Add shrimp and lemon juice. Cook for a few minutes just until shrimp turns pink.
- 3. Add all remaining ingredients except the white rice. Stir frequently and cook for 5-10 minutes to allow butter sauce thicken some and blend flavors. (I like to measure ingredients before I begin. This recipe tends to cook up quickly.)
- 4. Spread hot white rice over bottom of casserole dish. Poor shrimp with all butter sauce over white rice and serve immediately. The rice always soaks in some of the butter sauce and tastes amazing.
- 5. Optional - I sometimes stir in a can of French cut green beans which is always delicious.
- 6. 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.
