For the Shrimp Scampi:
- 1 lb large shrimp (peeled and deveined)
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter, divided
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/4 cup dry white wine (or chicken broth)
- 2 tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
- 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley, plus more for garnish
- Salt and pepper to taste
For the Garlic Bread:
- 4 thick slices of French or Italian bread
- Garlic butter (made by mixing softened butter with minced garlic and parsley)
- Prepare the Garlic Bread: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Spread garlic butter on each slice of bread and arrange them on a baking sheet. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until golden and toasted. Set aside.
- Cook the Shrimp: Heat 1 tbsp olive oil and 2 tbsp butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Season the shrimp with salt and pepper, then add them to the skillet in a single layer. Cook shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side, until pink and opaque. Remove and set aside.
- Make the Sauce: In the same skillet, add 1 tbsp butter and the white wine (or chicken broth). Let it simmer for 1-2 minutes. Stir in the lemon juice, red pepper flakes (if using), and the remaining butter. Mix until smooth.
- Combine and Serve: Return the cooked shrimp to the skillet and toss to coat them in the sauce. Sprinkle with fresh parsley and stir gently.
