This is the best shrimp scampi recipe ever.
Not too garlicky like some other recipes.
This will absolutely melt in your mouth.
Serve along with a brown rice pilaf
and a green salad for a wonderful meal.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

1/2 cup olive oil
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 shallot, chopped
1/2 cup fresh parsley, minced
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano, crushed
2 tablespoons white wine
2 tablespoons your favorite brandy
Directions:
In a small bowl, combine flour, salt,
black pepper and cayenne pepper. Mix thoroughly.
Dredge shrimp in flour mixture. In a large skillet,
saute dredged shrimp in olive oil
for 5 minutes over high heat.
Toss shrimp often to prevent burning.

leaving the oil in the pan.

on the bottom of the skillet;
pour over shrimp.
Place the serving dish of shrimp
in a preheated broiler for about 2 minutes.
