Crispy Baked Shrimp Scampi
So easy to make, you won’t believe the flavours coming out of your skillet OR dish when it’s done! How fitting it is to be beachfront with a glass of rosé, writing up a post about shrimp. It does not get any better.

his version still has a good amount of buttery flavour in it without being in complete fear of busting out of your jeans. Also, I’ve cut a couple of steps out of the original recipe, creating something a little more easier for those of us finding ourselves out of breath!

Panko Breadcrumbs

Using Panko breadcrumbs guarantee a better texture when compared with regular breadcrumbs, but you can use what you have on hand.

I mixed breadcrumbs with parmesan cheese, garlic and a hint of red pepper flakes for a slight taste bud awakening. You can of course add more to suit your taste!
