  • When it comes to cooking dinner, easy elegance is what I’m going for these days. At first glance, this buttery, winey shrimp scampi looks downright decadent. But in reality, it’s the poster child for simplicity. It’s like I’m an illusionist in the kitchen! The shrimp are bathed in a garlicky, lemony butter sauce then dished up as an appetizer or served as a main with pasta, zucchini noodles, or over rice. And don’t forget the sourdough! Search “shrimp scampi” when you tap the link in my bio.
