  3. 3

    Add Shrimp and Scallions

    Add the shrimp to the skillet and season with salt and black pepper. Cook for about 3-4 minutes, turning occasionally, until the shrimp are pink and opaque. Add the sliced scallions and cook for an additional minute.

  4. 4

    Finish with Parsley

    Stir in the chopped parsley and remove from heat.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the shrimp scampi over the cooked rice with steamed broccoli on the side.
