Ina Garten Stuffed Shrimp

This Ina Garten Baked Stuffed Shrimp, also known as Baked Shrimp Scampi, is made with shrimp, olive oil, dry white wine, unsalted butter, and minced garlic. It takes around 20-25 minutes to prepare and cook. You can serve your Baked Stuffed Shrimp with cooked white rice, garlic bread, Baked Broccoli, or roasted Asparagus.

To prepare this Stuffed Shrimp, Ina begins by preheating the oven to 425°F and marinating the shrimp in olive oil and wine. She then creates a butter mixture with garlic, shallots, and herbs, which she spreads over the shrimp before baking. The end result is a dish that’s both flavorful and satisfying.

How To Make Ina Garten Stuffed Shrimp

1. Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 425°F.
2. Prepare Shrimp: Peel, devein, and butterfly the shrimp but keep the tails on. Toss them in a bowl with olive oil, wine, salt, and pepper. Let them sit at room temperature.
3. Make Butter Mixture: In a small bowl, mix together softened butter, garlic, shallots, parsley, rosemary, red pepper flakes, lemon zest, lemon juice, egg yolk, panko, salt, and pepper.

What To Serve With Stuffed Shrimp

For a well-rounded meal, consider serving your stuffed shrimp with fluffy rice, mashed potatoes, or a fresh garden salad. These sides complement the rich flavors of the shrimp and make for a satisfying dining experience.

How To Store Stuffed Shrimp

In The Fridge:

Store any leftover stuffed shrimp in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Make sure the shrimp are fully cooled before sealing them in the container to maintain freshness.

In The Freezer:

You can freeze stuffed shrimp for up to 2 months. Place them in a single layer on a baking sheet to freeze initially, then transfer them to an airtight container or freezer bag. This prevents them from sticking together.

How To Reheat Stuffed Shrimp

To reheat, preheat your oven to 350°F. Place the stuffed shrimp in a single layer on a baking sheet and heat for about 10-15 minutes, or until they are heated through. If you’re reheating from frozen, extend the time to 20-25 minutes.
