Every one of us has been in such situation: we want something exciting but don’t have time to do it. The typical Midwestern meal of shrimp scampi transports you to the tastes of seaside Italy. I have put a spin on tradition for us busy bees, making what is usually a simple stovetop event. You may prepare this version in the slow cooker in the morning and have supper practically ready to serve when you get home from work. If you’re searching for an elegant supper idea that doesn’t require much preparation, try this lemon garlic shrimp scampi. It will make you feel like you’re on a beach, even if you’re only in your garden.
Pastas like angel hair and linguine make great supporting cast members for shrimp scampi. Alternately, you can serve it over cauliflower rice or zucchini noodles for a low-carb option. To balance off the sour, garlicky, and lemony flavors, serve it with a fresh salad or steamed vegetables.
