Delicious!! If you love butter, garlic, and lemon with your shrimp, you'll love this recipe. This scampi goes together super fast and has lots of flavor. I doubled the recipe to serve 6 and there were no leftovers. I used a chardonnay wine and added some fresh, cracked black pepper. Also, be sure to use real butter, not margarine with this...it is a must. My family devoured this and claimed it a winner. Thank you for sharing. *Made for 2009 Spring PAC*
