Shrimp Scampi

    Heavenly! Well, I didn't have cilantro, lemon peel, or red pepper flakes, but I substituted those with a heavy dose of salt-free lemon-pepper seasoning. I also used Smart Balance margarine instead of butter (we usually use this). Turned out delish! Served with white rice and poured a little bit of the butter sauce over the rice -YUMMY TO MY TUMMY. Also served artichokes with curry dipping sauce. To die for! Thanks Connie! I've added this to my cookbook.

    Shrimp Scampi,After experimenting with different scampi recipes, I came up with this combination of flavors. We enjoy it over a little cooked pasta, or white rice. You can perk it up a bit by adding more pepper flakes.,Heavenly!
