Shrimp Scampi

INGREDIENTS

• 4 garlic cloves, 2 grated, 2 thinly sliced
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
• 1 pound large shrimp, peeled, deveined
• ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
• ¼ cup dry white wine
• 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
• ¼ cup (½ stick) unsalted butter
• 3 tablespoons chopped parsley
• Warm crusty bread (for serving)

RECIPE PREPARATION

• Whisk grated garlic, salt, and 1 Tbsp. oil in a medium bowl. Add shrimp, toss to coat, and chill, uncovered, at least 30 minutes and up to 1 hour.
  
• Heat remaining 2 Tbsp. oil in a large skillet over medium and cook shrimp mixture, being careful not to let shrimp or garlic brown, until shrimp is pink but still slightly underdone, about 1 minute per side. Transfer to a plate with a slotted spoon, leaving as much oil in pan as possible. Add sliced garlic and red pepper to skillet and cook, tossing, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add wine and lemon juice and cook, stirring occasionally, until reduced by half, about 2 minutes. Add butter and cook, stirring and swirling pan

We had this with corn on the cob that was cooked on the grill and the side dish was zucchini, yellow squash, onion and mushrooms cooked with garlic, oil, and teriyaki sauce.
