>>8245020
That's so fancy. I love shrimp cocktail too. But it's just my wife and I tonight so I'm not gonna make it too fancy lol

>>8245026
I fucking love scampi. I was thinking of making this tonight but wanted some more suggestions before I pull the trigger

It's about $1-$2.
Then I use the recipe on the back.
I use boneless skinless chicken thighs seasoned with Chinese 5 spice and rubbed in olive oil, baked for 20 minutes at 450 degrees.
I put the veggies in while it's still boiling (except for some of the green onion).
Once it's done, I mix in the chicken (chopped into less than 1/3 inch pieces), precooked shrimp (tailed removed, but you don't have to) and green onions etc.
I usually add a little more water if it needs it and put the lid on the pan and less it simmer, stirring a few times.
The gf likes it.
But then, she's from a bad family and would be impressed by just the chicken with a side of greens and baked potato.

Plain shrimp cocktail with your favorite alcohol.

>>8245035
Shrimp works well with the creole one.

Add while boiling:
>2 tablespoons of butter
>diced red/green/yellow peppers (in any combination you like, a little jalapeno can be nice)
>2x cloves of crushed garlic
>half an onion (yellow/white/whatever, about the size of a baseball)

Once it's hit the time on the package, add:
>shrimp (again, I take the tails off)
>paprika, cayenne, black, white, red pepper to to taste

I'm fairly liberal with pepper/s in general because I like my food spicy.

>>8245005
That looks like a Prawn to me.

Scampi is not prawns (or shrimp if you are an Amerifat)

Scampi is something entirely different but I wouldn't expect you to know that!

>>8245102
Then what the fuck is in a shrimp scampi, bud?

>>8245135
In the UK Scampi is the fried, breaded tails of a small lobster thingy. I only know it by its French name of langustine, it's nothing to do with Prawns or shrimp (unless you live in America)

>>8245178
Oh informative. I honestly had no clue. Thanks!

I just cook 'em up in olive oil and butter with lots of garlic, and toss the whole thing with some spaghetti, parsley, and my homemade ground chili blend.

>>8245178
Da fuq are you on about? We're talking about fucken shrimp scampi. Its a recipe, not a separate creature.

>>8245230
You never read my post.
'shrimp scampi' is an American thing but it's not real scampi and it's not what they call scampi in Britain.

re-read my post >>8245178

>>8245230
>>8245259
Sometimes words mean different things in different regions. STOP THE FUCKING PRESSES!

Also, even in America there is no single thing called "shrimp scampi." It's multiple recipes.

>>8245280
I would accuse you of splitting hairs but I think you are trying to split hairs already split!

I was just saying that fried breaded 'shrimp' in Britain could not be called Scampi!

Scampi in Britain are the fried breaded tails of a Langustine, they are different animals.

I don't get why you have a problem with this?

>>8245259
>it's not real scampi

>typical little englander
What's a little Englander?

I am not English but I lived there for a year and a half, so I understand a bit. Why the hostility?

>>8245259
I read your post. OP is clearly asking for recipes of shrimp/prawns. Why would you think I'm telling him to go get a different fucking sea creature?

And who the fuck made you arbitrator of what is "real" whatever when he clearly understood just what I was talking about.

Your parents shouldn't have had you vaccinated.

>>8245331
>I read your post. OP is clearly asking for recipes of shrimp/prawns
That's good.

But you can't make scampi from them.

it's like trying to make rabbit stew with chicken.

>>8245338
While the United Kingdom legally defines scampi specifically as Nephrops norvegicus[citation needed], other similar lobsters are considered scampi worldwide.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scampi

Holy shit autism island literally has laws defining cooking methods. Wew lad.

That's not how they eat it in Britain.

>>8245394
No they don't.

It's not my job to stuck up for the British but I was there for nearly two years and I bet none of you have there at all.

I was just saying how it is with scampi.

"Scampi" is an italian Word an mean "Norway Lobster" ( Nephrops norvegicus ) aka "langoustine" in french and "Kaisergranat" in german...

> The word "scampi" is often construed as that style of preparation rather than an ingredient, with that preparation being called "shrimp scampi", and with variants such as "chicken scampi".


"...chicken scampi" kek

>>8245005
Chinese have pretty bomb recipes for shrimps.

I'm a big sucker for garlic and soy sauce shrimp.

Other ideas :
> shrimp skewers with soy sauce, honey and spice marinade (curry, chili flakes, cumin...), sauteed in a fry pan, served with coconut rice
> shrimp noodle soup (check out malaysian recipes for these ones)

If your shrimps are fresh and uncooked, boil shrimp with ciabatta bread (slathered with salted butter, fucking yum)

>>8245418
Ok. But in >>8245026, the post specifically described "shrimp scampi". Referring to the dish "shrimp scampi", a common shrimp dish. A pic was even included. And OP replied and understood what was meant.

You're either an absolute idiot for taking that to mean I meant fuck your shrimp and go buy a completely different sea creature, or you're so autistic that regional variation in terminology makes you sperg out.

>>8245021
you're a prawn

Coconut shrimp.

Coconut anything with shrimp. You can use coconut milk and make a sauce, or coconut oil and fry them, or coconut shavings in the batter, or all three.

>>8245026
mmmmmmmm

>>8245435
But the post you referred to does not contain scampi at all, it's just shrimps(or prawns)

>>8245301
My point is that arguing over it is fucking stupid. Yes, "scampi" means different things in different places. "Prawns" are "shrimp" here. Big fucking deal. Either talk about the thread topic, or fuck right off.

>>8245376
Don't you also cum shrimp?

I meant cooked* sorry

You made a fool out of yourself.
You don't make rabbit stew with chicken and I think you have just discovered that.
Best of luck with your damage control.

>Referring to the dish "shrimp scampi", a common shrimp dish.
common in USA... not in the rest of the word, and not everybody here on /ck/ is american and know everything about "american Cuisine"

>>8245491
And...he would probably have called them prawns if he wasn't.

Shrimp scampi is an Italian-American dish made with shrimp, butter, garlic, parsley, lemon, and sometimes breadcrumbs. Often served over pasta or rice.

Ok? Understood? Or are you going to tell me that I'm wrong and this dish doesn't really exist in this dimension.

>>8245498
>Ok? Understood? Or are you going to tell me that I'm wrong and this dish doesn't really exist in this dimension.

can you read?

>common in USA...

sometimes i wish USA was from an other dimension desu that would explain a lot of things...

>>8245498
>sometimes breadcrumbs
>sometimes
So it's not real scampi then?

Like anything in America it was invented in America in [insert date here] by an immigrant from [insert country here] - regardless of the fact that it was eaten for centuries in another country beforehand?

>>8245498
>shrimp, butter, garlic, parsley, lemon
you mean "Gambas al Ajillo" ( Spanish) or " Gamberini Gamberi all'aglio" ( Italian) ?

>>8245488
What the fuck are you even talking about?

Who is saying anything about discovering anything? Have you even been reading the thread?

Actually making sticky ginger shrimp tonight. Quickly cook shrimp until almost done and set aside. Then take honey,ginger,garlic, and soy sauce and simmer until thick. Add shrimp heat through sprinkle with green onions and sesame seeds. Serve with jasmine rice.

Shrimp and grits is just as good but more time consuming.

>simmer until potatoes are completely softened, mash lightly and stir until stew thickens (check for taste at this point and add more chili powder if you want)
>add 8 ounces of shrimp (chopped if large), if raw cook for another 8-10 minutes or so, if cooked remove from heat and stir in 1 cup of milk

YOu've got to get that scampi going, op. It's super simple and made with only a handful of ingredients that are cheap and easy to find. It's also super quick and is sure to impress any lady visitors. Return to /ck/ once you've gotten sticky all over from your lady friend and give us the awful and disgusting details of the sinning. Also, tell us how the scampi was.

I made scampi, with portobello and roasted broccoli. Turned out great, I didn't follow much of a recipe and just did it my own way.

> Brown shrimp in butter with salt and pepper. Add garlic in the end, spritz with half a lime.
> Remove from pan
>Simmer portobello with salt releasing the water. Cook until soft and reserve.
> Deglaze the fond with water (didn't have chicken stock). Add more water on high heat, add salt, cook until boiling.
>Add the pasta, stirring and adding more water in needed.
> Seasoned the pasta with salt, pepper, red pepper, garlic, half lemon, dry vermouth.
> Add butter and reserved mushroom and shrimp on low heat until the butter melts, leaving a god tier sauce.
