Spicy Shrimp Scampi image

This recipe was obtained from shrimp.com. My son wanted *something different* for new years eve dinner, and I yelled downstairs to him to find something with shrimp, as I had a bunch of shrimp leftover in the freezer from Christmas. The aroma of all that garlic while cooking made our mouths water! Very tasty meal and not a complicated recipe. Our guests raved about it. We doubled the recipe and served 4, however the portions were very generous, I'm sure I could have served 6 on the doubled recipe.

This dish was a bit too spicy for me, but it was still very good. I would recommend using less cayenne pepper next time.
