This easy recipe for lemon artichoke shrimp scampi gets cooked on the grill for super simple cooking and clean-up. Full of bright springtime tastes!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 slice bread
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1 1/2 pounds shrimp, peeled and de-veined
  • 1 package artichoke hearts (9 ounces), thawed
  • 1 lemon, zested and sliced into quarters
  • 1 package artichoke hearts (9 ounces), thawed
  • Salt and pepper
  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • 4 tablespoons white wine
  • 1/4 cup white wine
  • Pinch of red pepper flakes
  • 1/4 cup parmesan cheese
  • Chopped parsley and lemon wedges for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat your grill to medium high or your oven to 425.
  2. Whirl the bread in your food processor until it is chopped into crumbs.  Put the oil in a skillet over medium high heat and add the bread crumbs.  Stir until they are golden brown and crispy, and set aside.
  3. Take four sheets of heavy duty foil (or double up eight sheets of regular foil) and divide the shrimp and artichokes among the four pieces of foil. Top with a lemon quarter.  Sprinkle with salt and pepper, a teeny pinch of red pepper flakes and one tablespoon each of butter and white wine for each packet.  Seal the packets up tight, leaving some air inside so the steam can build up nicely.
  4. Place the packets on the grill (or on a rimmed baking sheet in your oven) and cook for 10 minutes with the grill lid down.
  5. Meantime, mix the zest from the lemon and the cheese into the breadcrumbs.
  6. Carefully open the packets, slide the shrimp mixture onto plates, sprinkle with the breadcrumb mixture and serve.  This is lovely just as it is, but is also wonderful over pasta or polenta!
