Method

Cooking Directions for Shrimp Scampi Grotto

  1. 1

    Prepare the Shrimp

    In a shallow dish, set up a breading station with flour, beaten eggs, and breadcrumbs. Season the flour with salt and pepper.

  2. 2

    Bread the Shrimp

    Dredge each shrimp in flour, shaking off excess, then dip into the beaten eggs, and finally coat with breadcrumbs. Place breaded shrimp on a plate.

  3. 3

    Cook the Shrimp

    In a large skillet, melt half of the butter over medium heat. Add the breaded shrimp in batches, cooking for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove and set aside.

    Make the Beurre Blanc

    In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute. Pour in the white wine and lemon juice, cooking until reduced by half.

    Finish the Sauce

    Reduce the heat to low and whisk in the remaining butter until melted and the sauce is smooth. Stir in chopped parsley.

    Plate the shrimp and drizzle the beurre blanc sauce over the top. Garnish with additional parsley if desired.
