Yields 1 serving

Ingredients

8-12 each 16/20 peeled, deveined shrimp
4 oz dry capellini / angelhair pasta
2 Tbsp Extra Virgin Olive oil
3 each garlic bulbs
1 each large shallot, small diced
2 tsp chili flakes
2 each lemons
¼ cup white wine
2 Tbsp capers
½ Cup cherry tomatoes, halved
½ Cup seafood stock
2 oz butter, cubed
1 parmesan cheese wedge
1 sprig basil, picked
TT Salt and Fresh Cracked Black Pepper

Method

Add water to a 4 quart sauce pot. Salt liberally, cover with a lid  bring to a boil.

Heat a medium nonstick sauté pan on medium heat with one tablespoon of olive oil. When hot add the shallots, finely grate the garlic bulbs into the pan and sauté for 2 minutes to soften them. Deglaze the pan with the white wine and cook until it is almost evaporated from the pan. Add the seafood stock, chilli flakes, capers, cherry tomatoes and lemons (zested and juiced). When the sauce comes to a simmer, season the raw shrimp with salt and pepper and poach in the liquid for about 1 minute per side. Add the cubed butter to melt. Taste and season the sauce accordingly.

Meanwhile, when the pot of water begins to boil, add the pasta and use tongs or a fork to gradually push it into the seasoned water as it starts to soften. Boil the pasta, stirring occasionally so it doesn’t stick together, for about 3-5 minutes, or until al dente. Strain the pasta and quickly add it to the pan with the scampi sauce and cooked shrimp. Toss the pasta in the sauce to coat evenly. Finally, tear the fresh basil leaves and toss into the pasta before plating.

Plate the cooked pasta into a medium size bowl with some height. Garnish with a grating of parmesan cheese.

  1. Gordon, shrimp scampi doesn’t have tomaaaatoes, Basil or Parmesan. What’s next, you going to put it between two slices of bread? You idiot sandwich! Lose the capellini, what? Is it just going to magically run away like your dog? Pasta is over cooked to mush BTW. Yup, calling you out big boy.

  2. I don’t care what people say about his personality, I think he is amazing!!! The best of the best.

  3. Lord Jesus Christ I believe in you and I fervently give myself to your life, I ask you to drive away all evil and grant me to have a life full of love, sustenance and family always protected. Bathe me with your miraculous blood and cover me with your blessed sacred mantle.

  4. have to try this. you can make you shrimp crisper if you marinate it in 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda and water. for 30 minutes. and just make sure you rinse it well. Try it. Also by putting the olive oil in the pasta before you mix it into the sauce makes it hard for the sauce to stick to the pasta. Just my two cents.
