Garlicky, buttery and juicy Shrimp Scampi, inspired by Hawaii’s best Shrimp Scampi! 

The balance of sweet, sour, and savory makes this dish truly delicious. You’ll be surprised how simple is it to make.

Shrimp: We used large U15 shrimp, you can use any size and amount you desire. We found shrimp with the peel on had the best flavor, however you may use peeled and deveined shrimp if you prefer.

Avocado oil: For a nice crisp texture you’ll want to use an oil with a high smoke point. Our favorite oil to use is avocado oil.

Garlic butter sauce: Make sure not to burn the garlic. To achieve a lightly browned color for your garlic you’ll want to use 2 teaspoons of olive oil in a sauce pan. On low to medium heat and cook the garlic until lightly browned in color. Then add the butter until melted and turn off heat.

Simply pair with rice, sweet chili sauce and don’t forget the lemon! For the full island vibes experience it was only right to serve this on paper plates and plastic utensils! Hope you enjoy this as much as we did!
