 My grandmother's recipe! This is copied out in my mother's handwriting, so you can see her 'Mama's Recipe' at the bottom - this goes back a ways! Wonderful flavor --

SHRIMP SCAMPI

Ingredients

Finely chopped garlic - LOTS

1 small jar chopped pimento

2 sticks butter (or part olive oil)

3/4 C white wine

Rosemary leaves (crush) - sprinkle lightly

Lemon juice of 2 lemons

Simmer 2 hours (or as long as you can). 

This recipe says for 7, cook 80 shrimp (20-25 count). DO NOT OVERCOOK. Pull the pan off the heat and eat them as soon as they turn pink!

We eat ours over steamed rice.
