Cremini mushrooms bring a nice twist to standard scampi. Butter-sauteed garlic with mushrooms, flour-dusted shrimp, and white wine goes great with pasta.

ingredients

1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined (tail on if desired)
6 cloves garlic
3/4 cup butter
all-purpose flour
1 cup sliced cremini mushrooms
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon white pepper
1 lemon, juiced
1 cup dry sherry
1/4 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped

directions

Place the flour in a bowl and set aside. Place butter and garlic in a large skillet and saute until garlic is fragrant and sizzling.

Toss the shrimp in the flour and shake away the excess. Add to the skillet along with the mushrooms; cook until they become golden.

Season with salt and pepper. Squeeze in the lemon juice and add the wine and continue to cook for 2-3 minutes.

Toss with pasta and serve garnished with chopped parsley.
