Shrimp Scampi

Okay so now you have been back at school for awhile and you must be tired of frozen pizzas - so try this.

1 pound peeled cleaned shrimp (you can use frozen, just defrost them before you cook them)
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup chopped red bell pepper
3 garlic cloves crushed
1/4 cup dry white wine
1 tablespoon dried parsley
1/8 cup fresh lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
3 cups cooked angel hair or spaghetti pasta

Preheat the even to 450 degrees.

Lay the shrimp in the bottom of casserole dish.

Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat.  Add the bell pepper and garlic and saute for 3 - 4 minutes.  Remove from heat, stir in wine, parsley, lemon juice, salt and pepper.  Spoon the wine mixture over the shrimp and bake for 8 - 10 minutes until shrimp are done (they will be pink in color).  Serve with pasta.

Serves 3 - 4 people.
