Shrimp Scampi
This is one of the tastiest and easiest recipes I have made yet. It is perfect with spaghetti too and being a carb lover, that is a big bonus! You can’t go wrong with all these flavors. I use seafood stock to extenuate the flavor of the shrimp as opposed to white wine which is what is traditionally used in this recipe. I literally whipped it up in 10 minutes. You cannot go wrong! It is the perfect weeknight dinner meal. Everyone will enjoy it. Check out the video below to see how I made it!
