Shrimp Scampi Bake

Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil*
1 clove garlic, peeled, smashed, kept whole
1/4 cup unsalted butter
1/4 cup dry white wine
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
1 1/2 teaspoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 pound raw shrimp, peeled and deveined, tails left on if desired


Directions

1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
2. Heat oil over medium heat. Add the garlic and simmer just until it starts to brown. Remove garlic and discard. Add the butter and stir to melt.
3. Add the white wine, parsley, lemon juice, Dijon, salt and pepper to the butter and stir.
4. Place shrimp in an 8"x 8" baking dish. Pour butter mixture over top.
5. Bake 12 to 15 minutes or until shrimp are pink and opaque.

*Please note that I have updated this recipe to simmer the garlic in oil, not butter. Since butter contains water, the fructans can leach out. So please flavor the oil with the garlic, not the butter!
