This already simple pasta just got even easier with my Oven-Roasted Shrimp Scampi!
Although most are likely familiar with shrimp scampi, if you are not it is a lovely combination of shrimp, garlic, butter, and white wine. The delicious dish is usually made by sauteeing shrimp in a skillet, but here I decided to let the oven do all the work. I love leaning on my oven to make dinnertime easier because while dinner bakes, you can get your table set, sides prepared, or anything else that needs to get done!
step one: bake the shrimp
In this recipe, you’ll simply toss your shrimp with garlic, shallot, olive oil, and a few other bright ingredients like lemon zest and white wine, then let that bake until cooked through in under 15 minutes.
step two: cook pasta
While your shrimp bakes to perfection, it’s time to get your linguine cooked. Don’t forget to heavily salt your water!
step three: assemble and serve
Next, drain the pasta and add to your shrimp mixture. Gently toss the pasta until well incorporated with the shrimp and sauce, this is also when you will add the parmesan if you are using it! Serve the pasta with lemon and parsley then voila! Dinner is served.
I know y’all will love this Oven-Roasted Shrimp Scampi! I hope you turn to this dinner on nights when you need a simple dinner in a hurry.

Just incredible. 10/10!! I never fail to be blown away by every new Defined Dish recipe I make! Love how easy & quick this was to throw together too. Thank you Alex!
I made this on a family beach trip as an easy and quick dinner, and it’s a banger! Everyone loved it. For such few ingredients, it packs a ton of flavor. I did use about 1/4 cup chicken broth and 1/4 cup rose because I didn’t have white wine, and you couldn’t tell at all. I will definitely be making it again!
Y’all, this is so good and easy!! My kids said it’s the best thing I’ve ever made.
I have never made a Defined Dish recipe I didn’t love, but the amount of flavor in this SUPER EASY recipe blew me away!!!! Everything is just thrown into one dish and it makes clean up so easy! Thank you, Alex!
So delicious! I doubled it for my family of five and they devoured it.
When doubling it did you use 2 pans are still put it all in a 9 x 13?
