Dairy Free Shrimp Scampi

This dairy free shrimp scampi sauce recipe comes together with a combination of olive oil and non dairy butter along with garlic, broth, lemon juice, and fresh parsley. Shrimp scampi sauce is traditionally made of butter, garlic, lemon juice, and white wine. My recipe calls for olive oil in place of butter, as well as dairy free butter to give this dish extra flavor. I love how bright, fresh, and light this meal is. Making it perfect for easy weeknight dinners!
