Ohjeet

Prepare the shrimp: Place the thawed shrimp in a colander and toss with ¼ teaspoon salt. Let sit for 1 minute, then rinse and pat very dry with paper towels. Season with ¼ teaspoon of fresh ground black pepper and set aside.

Cook aromatics: Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add shallots, garlic, and red pepper flakes. Stir them around the pan and cook until the shallots soften, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the shrimp to the skillet in a single layer. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes per side or until pink and opaque. Transfer the shrimp to a plate.

Make the sauce: Pour the white wine and the juice from half a lemon into the skillet. Simmer until slightly reduced, about 1 minute. Remove the skillet from the heat. Swirl in the butter and parsley until melted and creamy. Season with additional salt, pepper, or lemon juice to taste. Spoon the scampi sauce over the shrimp and enjoy.
