For those of us who don’t eat shrimp here is an alternative to shrimp scampi that takes only a few minutes to cook and is delicious. Start your pasta cooking before making the scampi as the scampi will be done in minutes.

Any pasta will do although homemade pasta elevates this to a special meal. Cleanup is just two pans.
