This shrimp scampi is a bright, savory dish that pairs succulent shrimp with zesty lemon, garlic, and buttery parmesan goodness. Perfect for a quick weeknight dinner or a light but satisfying date night meal, it’s layered with depth from a splash of white wine and richness from butter and olive oil. Fresh herbs like basil or parsley brighten the finish, while a dash of red pepper flakes adds just the right amount of heat. With its quick cook time and elegant presentation, this recipe feels gourmet without the effort. Serve it hot over al dente pasta and top with extra parmesan for a restaurant-quality experience at home.
