Shrimp Scampi over Wheat Pasta
- 1 lb of Raw de-vained,peeled shrimp, tail on
- 10 oz of unsalted butter
- 1/2 cup of fresh lemon
- 1/4 cup of white wine , ( make sure its a dry wine, you don't want a sweet after taste on this)
- 6 large garlic cloves- peeled , minced
- 1/4 cup fresh Oregano- minced
- 1/4 cup fresh Thyme- minced
- 1/4 cup fresh flat leaf parsley- minced
- 1/4 cup Chives- chopped
- Salt
- Black pepper
- Rinse your shrimp and set in the refrigerator
- mince all of your herbs, garlic and set aside
- have your wine and all the ingredients ready , this will go fast
- if you want to have this over pasta of your choice, make sure that is done prior to cooking the shrimp
- in a large sauce pan start melting the butter ( make sure you're doing it on low-heat this way you can avoid browning or burning it, that will give it a bitter taste)
- once your butter is melted add Garlic, right away once you start smelling the garlic add wine, lemon juice and cook between 4-6 minutes on lo-med heat
- add shrimp, half of your herbs herbs, salt and pepper and saute this for about 3 minutes, so you wont overcook the shrimp, they will become rubbery.
- plate over the pasta of your choice, top with minced herbs, ENJOY!!!
