- Preheat Your Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Saute the Garlic: In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Saute the finely chopped garlic until it becomes tender.
- Cook the Shrimp: Add the large shrimp to the skillet and cook them until they turn just pink, which usually takes about 2-3 minutes. Be careful not to overcook them, as they will continue cooking in the oven.
- Arrange the Shrimp: Remove the cooked shrimp from the skillet and arrange them in a baking dish.
- Prepare the Scampi Sauce: Using the same skillet, add the white wine, lemon juice, and Italian seasoning. Bring the mixture to a boil and let it simmer for 7-10 minutes or until it reduces by half.
- Incorporate the Butter: Slowly add chunks of the softened butter to the sauce, stirring well to incorporate it. Once all the butter is melted, pour the sauce over the shrimp in the baking dish.
- Add Finishing Touches: Sprinkle the shrimp with chopped parsley and grated Parmesan cheese. Season the dish with salt and black pepper to taste.
- Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake the shrimp for about 10-12 minutes or until they are cooked through, and the cheese is melted.
- Serve and Enjoy: Remove the dish from the oven, let it cool for a few minutes, and then serve. Your FAMOUS RED LOBSTER SHRIMP SCAMPI is ready to delight your taste buds!
