GARLICKY LEMONY SHRIMP SCAMPI
An Italian-American classic, these garlicky and wine-bathed beauties can be prepared quickly in your kitchen. Many cooks serve them over pasta or with a side of crusty bread, and either would make a great meal. Don't skimp on the shrimp size: use at least 21 to 25 (shrimp per pound [454 g]) or even jumbos (10 to 15 shrimp per pound [454 g]) because small shrimp cook too fast and don't have that plump, crisp texture. The key to this dish is to get that pan smoking hot before you start and to work fast. Mise en place is important, so have all your items prepped to keep up with the speed of the heat.

Steps:
- Heat a large skillet over high heat for 1 to 2 minutes. You want the pan hot but not smoking hot; you can add a few drops of water to see if they sear and evaporate immediately. Swirl in the butter and olive oil until the butter melts and the pan smokes lightly. Toss in the garlic and cook, stirring, for about 30 seconds, or until fragrant. Carefully pour in the wine and cook, swirling, until reduced by half, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Season with salt, red pepper flakes and black pepper.
- Add the shrimp, constantly tossing until they just turn from translucent to slightly opaque or pink, 2 to 4 minutes, depending on the size. Add the lemon juice and parsley. Remove from the heat and serve immediately.

LEMONY SHRIMP SCAMPI
Easy and elegant, this dish is a real catch. The use of the word "scampi" to mean a garlicky, buttery preparation for shrimp is more Italian-American than Italian; it's thought to have first appeared on a menu in 1950s New Jersey.

- Devein shrimp: Using a paring knife or a pair of kitchen shears, carefully make a shallow cut along the back of the shrimp (the curved side), in the middle, from the tip to where the tails begin. Use the tip of your knife or shears to remove the dark vein. Leave shells on the shrimp, loosening them just slightly so that the marinade can seep between the shells and meat.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, shallots, parsley, salt, and pepper. Add shrimp and toss to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate, refrigerated, 45 minutes. Remove from the refrigerator 15 minutes before grilling, and let stand at room temperature (approximately 70 degrees F), for a total marinating time of an hour.
- When you remove the shrimp from the refrigerator, preheat grill over medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates.
- In a small saucepan, melt together butter and extra virgin olive oil. Remove from heat, stir in garlic, stirring until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add salt, lemon juice and zest, scallions, parsley, and red pepper flakes, if using. Keep warm until ready to serve.
