Shrimp Scampi

Anyone have a good recipe?
I'd like to make it for about 6 people as a main dish.

Thanks!

also any suggestions on what else to serve with it would be great!

Re: Shrimp Scampi

i have a great recipe.. but its more like shrimp oreganata

-shrimp
-1/2 stick butter
-olive oil
-lemon
-4 cloves garlic, chopped
-1/2 cup bread crumbs
-1/2 teaspoon paprika
-salt & pepper

Season the shrimp with a little salt and pepper. In a pan with a metal handle, saute the garlic in the butter and olive oil til slightly cooked, but not brown. To this add the juice of the whole lemon and the paprika. Then add your shrimp til lightly pink on both sides, but not completely cooked. Cover the shrimp with the bread crumbs and mix together a little so that the bread crumbs combine with the oil/butter. Taste to see if its seasoned enough.
Put the whole pan into the oven and broil for about 3 minutes or until top is a little brown.

(You just dont want to overcook the shrimp)
I garnished mine with thin slices of lemon.

oh this sounds divine, and a perfect excuse to get DH a metal handled all clad for the oven for his bday!

I guess you just add more butter/oil depending on the amount of shrimp you use?
