Better Than Red Lobster's Shrimp Scampy

I absolutely love Shrimp Scampy. I have it every time I go to Red Lobster and I attempted to make it MANY times before I finally came up with this recipe. I actually like it better than Red Lobster's.

Ingredients:

1 lb fresh or frozen shrimp (uncooked, peeled and de-veined)
1 bag fresh grated Parmesan cheese (or you can grate your own)
1/4 cup white wine (I use Chardonnay)
2 tbsp (heaping) minced garlic (or more if you like)
1/2 cube real butter


Directions:

In 9" x 9" casserole dish, place shrimp on bottom not overlapping. Poor wine (about 1/4 to 1/2 cup) over shrimp until shrimp are covered half way up. With fingers, sprinkle garlic over shrimp as evenly as possible.  Cut cube of butter into thin slices and place evenly over shrimp. Sprinkle cheese on top until desired amount is achieved (I like lots) then broil in oven (don't bake) about 10 minutes. When done, shrimp will be orange/pink and cheese will begin to turn dark brown to black on ends.

To double the recipe I use a 9" x 13" casserole dish. (cake pan or whatever you want to call it, but glass is best)

Enjoy!
