Shrimp Scampi

 Delicious and full of fat, can serve witb zoodles for a filling, indulgent meal! Serves 4.

1 cup olive or grapeseed oil (for frying)
2 lbs. peeled and deveined large shrimp
1/2 cup almond flour
1 teaspoon baking powder- mixed into flour
1 tsp. Old Bay seasoning
1 1/2 cups dry white wine (I use Pinot Grigio)
1 tbsp. Worchestire sauce
5 cloves garlic, minced
2 1/2 tbsp. lemon juice
1/2 cup chicken broth
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter- diced
2 tbsp. fresh parsley, chopped
salt and pepper to taste

In a deep skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Meanwhile, place shrimp in a large bowl and coat with mix of almond flour/baking powder and Old Bay seasoning. In batches, shake off excess flour from shrimp and saute in oil until just cooked, about 2 minutes. Drain shrimp on paper towel lined plate.

Discard oil and add wine, Worchestire sauce, garlic, lemon juice, and chicken broth to skillet. Cook over high heat until sauce is reduced by half, about 8 minutes. Stir in butter and season with salt ans pepper to taste. Lower heat to medium, add shrimp and cook just one more minute, just until shrimp are re-heated. Sprinkle with parsley just before serving. Serve over zoodles for a keto meal or over noodles or rice for a non keto entree.
Enjoy!
