Alfredo Shrimp Scampi Dump Dinner Recipes

Steps:

• Marinate the shrimp in the other ingredients until you are ready for them.
• Thirty minutes before you are ready to serve, start heating the pasta water and place the half-and-half and butter in a large serving bowl to soften (sometimes I nuke it in the microwave for a minute or two).
• Put a large skillet over high (or medium high) heat to get it really hot.
• When the pasta is about three minutes away from being done (done=al dente), dump the shrimp and marinade into the hot skillet.
• Toss the shrimp around as they cook.
• Once the shrimp are pink and curled-up (about three minutes), remove the skillet from the heat.
• Drain the pasta and dump it into the serving bowl with the half-and-half and butter.
• Add the Parmesan cheese, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of black pepper and toss together gently (the residual heat from the pasta melts everything together).
• Pour the shrimp and sauce over the top and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Generously grease the bottom and sides of a 9-by-13-inch casserole dish with butter. Spread the rotini in an even layer in the bottom of the prepared dish. Scatter the shrimp over top and dot with the cubes of butter. Pour in the broth, then sprinkle with the red pepper flakes, garlic, lemon zest, 2 teaspoons salt and some black pepper. Cover with aluminum foil and bake until the pasta is al dente, about 25 minutes. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, toss together the Parmesan and parsley. When the pasta is done, stir in the warm cream and top with the cheese mixture.
