A couple of different ways you can cook this...
mm4mommy - October 10, 2007 05:39:46 PM PSTI have put the shrimp on kabob sticks w/ veggies and I also have put the shrimp in a pan w/ some of the extra butter sauce and baked them in a 350 degree oven for about 10 minutes... :)

If you want a scampi DINNER instead of appatizer
desireerochelle - May 19, 2008 04:51:40 PM PSTI really like this dish and recipe but instead of putting just shrimp then here's some other stuff you can put. I made this with my grandma accept we put shrimp, portabella mushrooms, and scallops with it. But it is pretty rich so it helps to tone it down if you put lemon juice. Trust me its DELICIOUS
