I love shrimp..in just about any dish..one thing I detest tho?..digging into my dish to pull tails off the shrimp.. I see no diff in the flavor of my dishes on or off so I always remove..don't want guests having to dig in either..

This recipe is so delicious! My 20 year old son makes dinner once a week. We often request this shrimp scampi and he makes it easily.

I've been making shrimp scampi for over 30 years. You should butterfly the shrimp wide open if you want the best-tasting scampi and I never preseason the shrimp. Also I find using finely chopped scallion or green is better than shallots. I've never heard of using tomatoes as well. Also it should be cooked over medium-high heat and cooked fast not slow
