Hey, hey! Valentina with Valentina’s Corner sharing a recipe for the easiest Shrimp Scampi!

What is Shrimp Scampi?

Shrimp Scampi is an amazing Italian shrimp dish. It calls for large shrimp or prawns seasoned, then cooked and generously smothered in a butter, garlic and wine sauce served with freshly squeezed lemon juice. The flavors come together and produce a restaurant-quality dinner from the comfort of home. This recipe is perfect for a date night dinner at home. 

This is a great recipe if you are on the keto diet. If you are completely removing wine when on the keto diet, the wine may be completely substituted for broth.

How to Make Shrimp Scampi?

This easy shrimp scampi is sure to impress not only with how simple and quick the dish is to prepare but also the flavor of the dish and WOW aesthetic appeal.

  1. Season and sautee shrimp just until cooked through
  2. Remove shrimp from pan and cover to keep warm
  3. Saute garlic with butter, pour in the wine and broth and simmer
  4. Add the shrimp back to the pan, top with fresh parsley and squeeze in lemon juice
  5. Toss to combine and enjoy immediately

NOTE: Don’t overcook the shrimp or it will taste rubbery and dry. Cook just until both sides are opaque and pink in color.

Step by steph photo instructions how to make Italian shrimp scampi in the skillet.

What is the Best Wine for Shrimp Scampi?

Your favorite dry white wine may be used in this wine sauce such as Pinot Grigio, Chardonnay, or Sauvignon Blanc.

Do not use anything labeled “cooking wine” for shrimp scampi which are often low quality, taste terrible and contain additives. There is no need to break the bank. A reasonably priced  ($8-$10 per bottle) dry white wine would work really well for shrimp scampi. 

Can I make Shrimp Scampi Without Wine?

Yes, if you don’t have wine or don’t like to cook with wine, just substitute the wine for chicken broth. Season sauce with additional salt, pepper and lemon juice to taste, if needed.

What can I serve with Shrimp Scampi?

You can enjoy them as an appetizer paired with a crusty French bread to dip into that amazing sauce, or enjoy this seafood dish as a main course with your favorite side. Shrimp scampi pairs well with mashed potatoes or white rice and baked asparagus, or you can toss this scampi with your favorite pasta.

    Excellent recipe and ALMOST exactly how I make my shrimp scampi. One thing extra I do is take those shrimp peels and boil them in small amount of water for a few minutes and use this broth with the white wine instead of another kind of broth!

      Vegetable broth. We often throw away the water that our vegetables cooked in. Why not add a celery stalk, an onion, salt, pepper, spices if you like (I a rosemary stalk); boil that water to obtain a reduced liquid. Cool down and pour in ice cube tray and free. Once frozen put in a bag and you will have on hand a nice broth for sauces, etc.

It really is a quick, easy & delicious recipe. It’s done in the time it takes for the water to boil & pasta to cook!

    Hi Natasha, love this recipe and i have been making for quite some time (my fav fun night meal)! I do one thing different. I boil the shells from my easy peel shrimp for 20 min. and use this instead of the broth. Tip: I boil shells and freeze in ice cube tray so I don’t have to boil them every single time I make this meal (which is once a week). I also chop 1 shallot and cook with garlic. I love your recipe videos, thank you!

      Hi Marie, Your favorite dry white wine may be used in this wine sauce such as Pinot Grigio, Chardonnay, or Sauvignon Blanc. Do not use anything labeled “cooking wine” for shrimp scampi which are often low quality, taste terrible and contain additives. There is no need to break the bank. A reasonably priced ($8-$10 per bottle) dry white wine would work really well for shrimp scampi.

    The shrimp scampi is the bomb!
    Really good.
    I don’t follow directions but I was close. Added shrooms. Yum

    How much “sauce” does it make? Enough to pour over 2 servings of pasta or should I double the recipe?

      Hi Lesly, I wish I had measured it that way. If you like more of the sauce you are more than welcome to double it.

      The only thing is when I add the shrimp to the oil it sizzles and the oil goes everywhere. Am I making the oil to hot? I’d like to make this more but it’s hard when I can’t get close to the hot skillet with oil going everywhere

        Hi Marlee, it sounds like it may be too hot. What kind of oil are you using?

          Hello,

          I used olive oil. Also I used defrosted shrimp, could that affect the outcome of the dish?

          Thank you!

            Hi Marlee, defrosted is best since the liquid will cause splatter and increase cook time/ the possibility of drying it out.

    Hi Natasha, I was wondering if I make a bigger batch will this reheat well? Or is it only good fresh? Thank you!

      Hi lena, I haven’t tested that in a large batch but that should reheat just fine.

    What kind of wine is recommended?

      Hi Kathy! Your favorite dry white wine may be used in this wine sauce such as Pinot Grigio, Chardonnay, or Sauvignon Blanc. Do not use anything labeled “cooking wine” for shrimp scampi which are often low quality, taste terrible and contain additives. There is no need to break the bank. A reasonably priced ($8-$10 per bottle) dry white wine would work really well for shrimp scampi.

    Hi Natasha! Great recipe. Thank you for sharing as always. I have a request for you. As Easter is around the corner, I am hoping you will give brioche bread a whirl. I think it would be such a great addition to your blog. It’s definitely missing here and would fit perfectly for Easter. I watched Stefanie from Joy of Baking make some brioche bread and thought how you could bring that type of bread to the Slavic community.

    If I served this with rice, could I double the sauce for the dish and serve it over the rice? It sounds amazing as is, that’s why I rated it 5 stars.
