To me, Shrimp Scampi is decidedly about the shrimp, and less so about the pasta (although, HOW FUN ARE THOSE SHELLS?). The important thing here is that you have a lot of saucy, glossy businesses all over whatever you’re serving it on (pasta, rice, more vegetables) or sopping it up with (toast, obviously). Season the shrimp with plenty of salt and pepper before adding it to the skillet– I once did not do this, and it made a huge difference (in a bad way!).
