I made this last night. It was so quick and was very good.
Shrimp Scampi (the recipe is from my Betty Crocker Newlywed Cookbook)
1.5 lb uncooked medium shrimp (I used half a bag of frozen shrimp)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
2 tablespoons lemon juice (I used fresh lime juice since I didn't have lemons)
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 medium green onions, thinly sliced (I used yellow onions)
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
Grated parmesan cheese
1 lb of potato gnocci (I added this, I usually use pasta but it was really good with the gnocci)
1. In a 10 in skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Cook shrimp and remaining ingredients except cheese in oil for 3 minutes, stirring frequently until shrimp are pink and firm; remove from heat. Sprinkle with cheese. I boiled the gnocci in another pot and added them to the pan once cooked. I highly recommend trying this.
Re: Recipe I HAVE to share
I doubt we'd do the gnocchi. I've been meaning to try it, but want to try to make it fresh (I saw it on a Rocco diSpirito show and it was actually easy to make from scratch, but I don't have a ricer.)
I'm so tired of hearing how great Trader Joe's is. LOL Everyone raves about it and the nearest one is BY YOU in Chicago!
It sounds like this would be my favorite store ever.
Sounds really easy to make and pretty good (minus the shrimp
) Maybe I'll make it for MH one night when I feel like having something like cereal.
And Graves you can find gnocchi at any grocery store. Usually by where you would find tortollinis in either the refidgerated or freezer sections.
I LOVE gnocchi with a good vodka sauce!
thanks Flyer, I will take a look when I stop by on my way home tonight for cat food.
