Shrimp Scampi

Shrimp Scampi

One pound fresh uncooked shrimp, shelled and deveined
(The rest of these ingredients are estimates on the amounts. We just throw it in till it looks about right)
1/4 cup shallots, minced
4 to 5 cloves garlic, minced
Half stick of butter (do NOT USE MARGARINE!)
2 to 3 Tbls olive oil
1/4 cup white wine
Red pepper to taste
Salt to taste (you likely won’t need much if any, especially if you use salted butter)

Add all ingredients except the shrimp to a skillet and simmer about 30 minutes or until the shallots are very tender and the garlic has mellowed. Add the shrimp and cook another 7 to 10 minutes until the shrimp is pink and cooked through.

Eat!
