Why I Love This Recipe

I had a girls night out planned for dinner, but before leaving, I quickly made one of my husband's favorite dishes.... shrimp scampi. The only issue was that I was out of white wine. As a result, I improvised and used some sherry instead. It added a nice sweetness and actually enhanced the dish.

Here is my altered recipe for Shrimp Scampi:


Ingredients You'll Need

1 lb large shrimp, butterflied
1/2 cup butter or margarine
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup sherry or white wine
1/3 sliced bell peppers
juice of 1/2 a lemon
2 oz angel hair pasta, cooked


Directions

In a pan, melt butter with garlic.


Add shrimp and sherry or wine.


Cook shrimp until 1/2 way pink.


Add bell pepper and cook through.


Toss in cooked pasta and lemon juice.
