SHRIMP SCAMPI IN OVEN RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. If using frozen shrimp, thaw and peel leaving tails on. Add shrimp in a single layer to 13 x 9 baking dish. Prepare sauce by mixing lemon juice, garlic, salt, pepper, and oregano until salt crystals have dissolved. Whisk in olive oil. Pour sauce over shrimp in baking dish. Place butter slices on top of shrimp. Lightly season on top with additional salt, pepper, and oregano. You can also season with dried parsley and paprika for color if desired. Bake for 10 minutes or until shrimp are cooked - the exterior should turn pink with red tails and the flesh will be slightly opaque and a little “white” in color.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Generously grease the bottom and sides of a 9-by-13-inch casserole dish with butter.
• Spread the rotini in an even layer in the bottom of the prepared dish. Scatter the shrimp over top and dot with the cubes of butter. Pour in the broth, then sprinkle with the red pepper flakes, garlic, lemon zest, 2 teaspoons salt and some black pepper. Cover with aluminum foil and bake until the pasta is al dente, about 25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, toss together the Parmesan and parsley. When the pasta is done, stir in the warm cream and top with the cheese mixture.
