How to make creamy shrimp scampi with angel hair pasta – Best Tips & Tricks
1. Which ingredients can be changed in this creamy shrimp scampi pasta recipe?
- You can substitute butter with clarified butter or oil for a dairy-free dinner. Just leave out the cheese or choose your favorite plant-based cheese.
- You can sub parmesan with Grana Padano or pecorino cheese if you prefer.
- Feel free to use other types of pasta. Spaghetti or linguine would work well. Just keep in mind that larger noodles will need a longer cooking time (usually 8 to 10 minutes to cook to al dente). You’ll also need more cooking liquid, as bigger noodles absorb more broth than angel hair. To be safe, keep an extra 2 to 3 cups of broth if you’re using a different type of pasta and add it if the dish seems a bit dry.
2. Can I make garlic shrimp scampi pasta with wine?
Yes, why not add a splash of white wine to liven up the dish?
Simply add 1/2 cup of white wine to the shrimp during the last 2 minutes of cooking, before adding the pasta. Let the shrimp simmer in the wine a bit to soak up all that flavor. Then remove the cooked shrimp from the pot and continue with the recipe.
As for the wine you use, there is no secret here: just use a bottle you like and are happy to drink. It’s just half a cup after all, and it’ll also end in your belly ????
Whatever you do, don’t buy super cheap cooking wine. The wine is important as it enhances the flavor of the food, and you’ll also feel its flavor stronger in the food. So you don’t want to end up with a food tasting like a cheap wine you wouldn’t drink.
3. What is the best way to cook the shrimp for this recipe?
For the most tender shrimp scampi, cook the shrimp in a shallow skillet until they just turn pink. This makes for a one-pot dinner, as you can cook the pasta in the same pot.
Tip: Use peeled and deveined jumbo or extra-large shrimp for really plump and juicy flavor.
You can also use pre-cooked shrimp if you prefer.
Whether you buy fully cooked shrimp or have leftover grilled or roasted shrimp from another meal, the method is the same. Simply add the cooked shrimp right before serving (after the pasta is cooked) and heat through.
Or if you prefer the char of a grill, you can also grill shrimp for the scampi and add them to the pasta and sauce before serving.
To make perfect grilled shrimp:
- Lightly oil and preheat a grill to medium heat.
- In a large bowl, toss the shrimp with salt, pepper, and olive oil or melted butter, until evenly coated.
- Cook the shrimp for 2 to 3 minutes per side, or until opaque.
4. How to make this easy shrimp scampi recipe low-carb
If you’re following a low-carb diet, you can simply make creamy shrimp scampi without the pasta. You’ll also only need 1/4 cup of broth to make a silky sauce.
- First, melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute, stirring constantly. Add the shrimp and sprinkle with chili flakes and sea salt.
- Cook the shrimp for 1 to 2 minutes per side, or until pink and opaque. Set aside on a plate.
- To the same skillet, add the lemon zest and juice. Pour in 1/4 cup of broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook for about 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the sauce to reduce and enhance its flavor.
- Stir in the parmesan cheese and chopped parsley, and mix until the cheese melts. Return the shrimp to the pan and turn the heat off.
- Season with salt and pepper to your taste, and dig into your low-carb easy parmesan shrimp scampi!
5. How to make the shrimp scampi with frozen shrimp?
If you’re starting with frozen shrimp, it’s best to let them defrost before cooking. You can quickly thaw shrimp by placing them in a bowl in the sink and running cold water over them for 10 to 15 minutes, until soft. Drain well and pat the shrimp dry with a paper towel

Lemon Capellini
RECIPE COURTESY OF INA GARTEN
Level: Easy
Total: 10 min
Active: 10 min
Yield: 6 servings
Ingredients
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pound dried capellini
1/2 pound (2 sticks) unsalted butter
Zest and juice of 2 large lemons
1 lemon for garnish
Directions
Add 2 tablespoons of salt to a large pot of boiling water. Add the capellini and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, until just al dente.
Meanwhile, heat a large (12-inch) saute pan, add the butter, and heat until the butter is melted. Add the zest and juice of the 2 lemons. Add 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper and swirl the pan to combine.
As soon as the pasta is cooked, lift the pasta out of the water with tongs, allowing most but not all of the water to drain back into the pot, and add all the pasta to the sauce. Cook for one minute, adding pasta water to the sauce with a ladle just enough to keep the pasta moist.
Transfer the pasta to a serving platter or individual plates. Garnish with more lemon zest, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and squeeze a little lemon juice on top. Serve hot.
