Olive Garden Chicken Scampi Recipe





Ingredients:


***WHITE SAUCE: ***


1 tablespoon butter


2 tablespoons flour


3/4 cup milk; hot


***SCAMPI SAUCE:***


3 tablespoons butter


2 tablespoons garlic, crushed


1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper


1 tablespoon dried cilantro, optional


2 teaspoons Italian seasoning


black pepper to taste


3/4 cup white wine


1 cup chicken broth


1/4 cup white sauce


***REMAINING INGREDIENTS:***


1/2 pk. angel hair pasta, cooked and drained


bell peppers; thinly sliced


red onions; thinly sliced


10 cloves of garlic; roasted


2 chicken breasts; sliced


olive oil








Directions:





For white sauce: Heat 1 Tbsp. butter in sauce pan, add 2 Tbsp. flour and cook for 2 minutes on med. heat. heat stirring constantly. slowly add 3/4 cup hot milk (hot so it won't get lumpy). Set aside. (Make sure that the white sauce is hot when adding to the scampi sauce)





For scampi sauce: Heat butter over low heat. add the garlic, Italian seasoning, crushed red pepper and black pepper. cook for about 2 minutes on low heat. add the wine and chicken broth. stir until combined. (I usually cook mine for about 30-40 minutes). add 1/4 cup white sauce and cook till slightly thickened. In a large skillet, saute chicken in a little olive till nearly done. add the peppers and onions, saute till chicken is done. add the sauce. saute until everything is warmed. add roasted garlic cloves. serve over pasta.





ROASTED GARLIC: Separate head of garlic into individual cloves still in 'paper'. toss in olive oil and wrap tightly in aluminum foil or a small pint sized dish with a lid. bake in 350* oven for 45 minutes. when the garlic has cooled to the touch you should be able to squeeze it out of the 'paper' shell of the individual cloves.Can someone give me a shrimp or chicken scampi recipe?
Shrimp scampi is easy... In its simplest form all ya' really need is to saute the shrimp in some butter with garlic powder and it'll taste great. You can get fancy and use fresh garlic, fresh lemon juice and other herbs, like thyme or rosemary. You can give it a lil edge and through in some chili peppers and chili powder. It's really experimental, you can do whatever tastes good to you. As long as the shrimp, butter, and garlic are there it'll be SOME variation of a scampi. And don't forget a possible addition that can make anything taste better... Bacon!
