So glad you liked it, and thanks for this feedback! I manually add all the ingredient amounts in the instructions and there isn’t a way for me to sync it with the recipe card ingredient adjustments, unfortunately. Hopefully I’ll be able to figure out a solution for that eventually!

Tried this and it was great! One thing – I made it for serving 6 and the ingredients listed don’t match the instructions. It states for 6 you need 7.5 tbs of butter but the actual recipe only uses 5 tbs.

I used frozen raw shrimp! You could use cooked if you like, but you may end up with slightly overcooked shrimp (which will be safe to eat, just a bit rubbery in texture). If you use cooked, make sure they are fully defrosted and cook for less time, just enough to heat them through. Hope that helps and good luck – when I started cooking with shrimp it was a bit intimidating but once I did it once I was hooked because it’s SO easy! Oh one more thing- I recommend getting peeled and deveined shrimp so you don’t have to worry about any prep except for defrosting them.

Absolutely wonderful. Full of flavor, shrimp was tender, sauce had the prefect buttery garlicky flavoring mix. Love shrimp scampi tried other recipes, this rates #1. Better than any restaurant could serve.

Did you use frozen Raw shrimp or frozen cooked? I’m new to the shrimp game!

This is truly hands-down, the BEST shrimp scampi recipe. I have searched and experimented for years and I finally found your recipe. Thank you! My only deviation was that I boiled the shells in the wine for five minute. Perfect!

Oh no! I’m going to modify that note in the recipe card- the salt is optional and only a tiny pinch is needed. Thanks for this feedback and better luck next time!

Ugh, I ruined my shrimp with too much salt in the pre-soak. They soaked up the salt like a sponge and I couldn’t “cover up” the saltiness with the sauce. I ended up having to soak them in plain water for several minutes, ditched the sauce, and mixed them up with cocktail sauce to serve. A modest disaster. Next time, I’ll leave out the salt in the soak and wait until the very end to season, if needed.
