Garlic
If you are anything like me, you probably have a handy (and perfectly tasty) jar of marinated, minced garlic in your fridge for when you don’t feel like getting your hands dirty. For this dish, press fresh garlic. It will stand up to the heat of the pan better and prevent burning.
Parmesan Cheese
Use a high-quality parmesan cheese. Grab a block of it and grate it fresh. Grating your cheese unlocks oils and flavors that are lost in the shredded and bagged varieties.
Heavy Whipping Cream
Not everyone uses heavy whipping cream in their Shrimp Scampi. I, for one, am a sucker for the creaminess and texture it adds. Add it or don’t. Either way this dish will be something special!
