  1. I’ve made a version of this that’s kinda a combination of the simple and complex versions.

    Absolute perfection. It boggles my mind every time how the sauce is mostly broken and oily until I add the pasta water and it turns into a creamy sauce that’s almost like magic with how it thickens.

    The only thing I omit from the complex version is the additional herbs and red pepper flakes. I also cut down a little on the parsley since everyone else I make it for isn’t as big a fan as I am, but it’s still delicious. Thank you so much!

  2. If you're ever sponsored by a whilskey, it works really nice as a deglazer! I never have white wine, only Jameson whiskey in the house, yeah I know it is cheap, but it's not the cheapest, & I enjoy the flavor, to sip & in food.

  3. My sister is crazy picky but she loves shrimp and pasta…totally going to try making this for us while I'm keeping an eye on her this weekend, though maybe somewhere in the middle between the two versions

  4. Thanks Babish/Andy, I made this for my family and they absolutely loved it! I made a few adjustments to your recipe to help bring out that delicious flavor, like adding; yellow, orange and red bell peppers, sautéing them, then I put in garlic powder, onion powder, and 2 lemons and the zest from those lemons.
    It turned out amazing, I really love to follow your recipes.

  5. It's funny how this dish doesn't seem to exist here in Europe at all. I've never seen it on a menu. However, we do have deep fried scampi, which are basically scampi nuggets, battered/breadcrumbed and fried, usually served with chips (fries). Those are absolutely gorgeous. They're basically little lobster nuggets. You always squeeze a lemon over them which adds a ton of flavour, and dip them in tartare sauce. Mmm. I've always wanted to try this scampi pasta dish though too, so thank you for making a video about it.

  6. It was clear as day the aftertaste of that gin was horrific lol he shuddered both times he drank it roughly 2 seconds after swallowing which is indicative of extremely bitter notes at the end of the palate definitely not his cup of tea lol

  7. My mom knew that all seafood came in frozen but still bought from the case because one she cooked it immediately when we got home within ten to fifteen minutes so she didn't have to wait and two she liked the people working at the counter and wanted to make sure people had to be there and three she wanted the shell for stock

  8. People who leave the tail on shrimp are silly geese. No one wants to get their fingers dirty eating their shrimp, unless its some down south boil. I especially dont want to take the tails off my shrimp if I am out to eat at a restaurant and paying for prep.
