Made some shrimp the other night for dinner along with some salad and asparagus. Thought i would share one of my favorite ways to do the shrimp. Its fast and easy and really tasty!
I'll start off with the salad.
Chop up some lettuce.

Then some grape tomato sliced in half and salt and peppered

Add all the goodies. Red onion,black olive,sliced pepperoncini peppers, croutons,shaved parmisian and the salt and peppered tomatoes.

I really like this dressing. Works great when you dont feel like making your own. I'll toss this into the salad right before its time to eat.

Now onto the asparagus. Real simple. Just wrap a small slice of deli ham around them and coat them with olive oil. Then season with a little SPOG

And finally the shrimp. I start off by sauteing some garlic a little bit of butter. Then deglaze the pan with some white wine. Once it simmers for a couple of minutes I'll add some more butter to make it a sauce. Set that aside and let it cool off.

Then layer your shrimp in a small pie pan or baking dish.

Pour over the cooled down sauce and top with lemon pepper, a little salt , Parmesan and red pepper flakes.

Then pop everything into a 425 degree oven for about 10 to 12 minutes. Pull out the shrimp and broil the asparagus for just a couple minutes to crisp up the ham just a touch on the edges.

Man this was really good. It had been a while since I had some shrimp so this really hit the spot. Asparagus wrapped in ham is really good stuff and the salad was nice and Light to go along with the other stuff. This meal definitely made for a happy belly ! Thanks for taking a look!

Oh damn I love shrimp scampi and yours looks awesome! Definitely going to cook it that way next time, I like how you just had to throw it in the oven to finish. Love the ham and asparagus combo too!!

Thanks! Ive made it this way a bunch if times. You can make it a few hr before you cook and put in the fridge. Then just pop it in the oven 10-12 min and its ready. Same with the asparagus. Its perfect for when you have company.
That looks fabulous !! Thanks for posting.. I'm going to try that soon..

Thanks Al! This is one of our favorite ways to make shrimp. Really makes for an easy dinner especially when having company . more time to visit and less time in the kitchen.
 
Looks great . Don't eat much shrimp here . I need to branch out . Have to try the asparagus like that .
