11/1/2010 Dinner @ Home


Last night I made shrimp scampi. Here's how I did it:

1.) Chopped a ton of garlic and red onions
2.) Started the pan to get a little olive oil and a little butter hot
3.) Threw in garlic and onions for a few minutes
4.) Threw in shrimp that had been seasoned w/ salt and pepper as well as more butter
5.) Squeezed some lemon over the top while shrimp cooked
6.) More butter!
7.) Opened fridge in search of white wine. Found some, but it was unopened and decent wine. So, I said "eh."
8.) Little more butter.
9.) Took out hot rotini noodles and topped with shrimp and buttery garlicy goodness.
10.) Added oven corn to mine (Beth didn't want it). It seemed like (and was!) a natural fit for the dish. The corn added a nice crunch.
11.) Finally, brought out the foccacia bread I baked w/ garlic and butter

Overall very tasty!
