Spicy Shrimp Scampi
  1. In a large bowl, combine the shrimp, olive oil, minced garlic, lemon zest, and a heaping tablespoon of Calabrian chiles

  2. Stir to coat the shrimp thoroughly, then let it marinate for 15 minutes

  3. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Without oiling the pan, add a batch of the shrimp in a single layer

  4. Cook the shrimp on both sides to get some good color around the edges, about 1 minute per side

  5. Dump the shrimp onto a plate, and repeat with the rest of the shrimp

  6. Add the sliced garlic to the pan and quickly stir it to keep it from burning, about 30 seconds

  7. Slowly pour in the wine, stirring and scraping the bottom of the skillet

  8. Squeeze in the lemon juice, add 1 teaspoon of the Calabrian chiles, add a pinch of salt and pepper to taste

  9. Stir and let the light, yummy sauce cook for 2 to 3 more minutes, so the sauce can reduce slightly

  10. Turn off the heat and add the shrimp to the skillet

  11. Make space in the center of the pan and add the butter

  12. Stir and let the butter melt, tossing the shrimp in the sauce as it melts

  13. Add the chopped parsley and stir, then serve immediately with chunks of warm, crusty bread
