🍤 Shrimp Scampi Extravaganza 🍤

📢 A delectable delight from the sea, perfect for turning any dinner into a special occasion! 🎉

🍽️ Ingredients 🍽️
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon parsley (fresh or dried)
- 1 1/2 cups white wine (Chardonnay recommended)
- 1 lb medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
- Juice of 1/2 fresh lemon
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1 tablespoon pure olive oil
- 1/2 cup softened butter
- 2 tablespoons garlic, finely chopped
- Salt and pepper, to taste

🧑‍🍳 Directions 🧑‍🍳
1. Heat a cast iron skillet over medium heat and add olive oil. Cook the shrimp until tender and no longer translucent, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove shrimp and set aside.
2. In the same skillet, add the garlic and sauté for 2-3 minutes, ensuring it does not brown.
3. Pour in the white wine and lemon juice, cooking until the liquid reduces by half, approximately 4-5 minutes.
4. Stir in the Italian seasoning.
5. Reduce the heat to low and blend in the butter until it melts completely and mixes with the wine sauce.
6. Return the shrimp to the skillet, coating them well with the sauce.
7. Mix in the parsley, and season with salt and pepper according to taste.
8. Serve hot, sprinkled with grated Parmesan cheese. Enjoy as is or paired with pasta, rice, or crusty bread.
