De Laurentiis shared her recipe for roasted shrimp scampi on her website ( Giadzy), where she describes how you can use a baking dish to cook many elements of the meal together, removing a frying pan from the process altogether. A classic shrimp scampi is usually prepared by sautéeing garlic, red pepper flakes, white wine, and shrimp in butter and olive oil.
Butter doesn't always get the credit it deserves in shrimp scampi, does it? It's the first thing you smell as the dish hits the dining table, and the last thing you taste when chasing down the last drop of sauce on the plate - a flavor thread tied into every ingredient. You weave it into sizzling garlic pieces, wrap its buttery scent around tender shrimp, and simmer it into the most enticing, velvety smooth sauce.
“When temperatures spike in the summertime, I never want to stand over a hot stove for too long, so a 10-minute pasta with some refreshing shrimp sounded like the perfect dish.”
