One of our favorite ways to make seafood at home is with this Quick & Easy Shrimp Scampi recipe. Not only is it easy to throw together, but this recipe easily serves a family of 4 without spending a ton of money. 

My husband and I love seafood. It’s a special treat that we usually have for Christmas, New Years Eve, my birthday, his birthday or our anniversary.

Otherwise, it’s not really on our dinner menu. But, every once in awhile, I’ll splurge and buy some shrimp, snow crab legs or some kind of fancy fish.

Medium shrimp at the grocery store are usually around $10.00 a pound, which includes about 40 to 50 shrimp.

Considering this recipe only requires a dozen or so, that’s only around $3.00 worth of shrimp!
