Gluten-Free Shrimp Scampi Recipe

Craving a classic Italian dish but need to keep it gluten-free? This delicious and easy Gluten-Free Shrimp Scampi recipe delivers all the garlicky, buttery goodness you expect, without the gluten! Shrimp scampi is a quick weeknight meal, perfect served over zucchini noodles or your favorite gluten-free pasta.

Why This Recipe Works:

Traditional shrimp scampi usually relies on flour for thickening the sauce. Our version skips the flour and uses a combination of butter, white wine, garlic, and a touch of lemon juice to create a rich and flavorful sauce that clings perfectly to the shrimp. The results are so good, you won’t even miss the gluten!

Ingredients:

• 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 4 tablespoons butter
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/4 cup dry white wine (like Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio)
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Gluten-free pasta or zucchini noodles, for serving

Instructions:

1. Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper.
2. Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook for about 30 seconds, until fragrant (be careful not to burn it!).
3. Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until pink and cooked through.
4. Pour in the white wine and lemon juice, and bring to a simmer. Cook for 1-2 minutes, allowing the sauce to reduce slightly.
5. Stir in the parsley.
6. Serve the shrimp scampi immediately over gluten-free pasta or zucchini noodles.

Tips and Variations:

• For extra flavor, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the sauce.
• If you don’t have white wine, you can substitute chicken broth.
• Feel free to add other vegetables to the skillet, such as asparagus or zucchini.
• Garnish with extra parsley and a lemon wedge for serving.
