This already simple pasta just got even easier with this hands-off Oven-Roasted Shrimp Scampi!
Shrimp scampi is a lovely and simple pasta dish made with a combination of shrimp, garlic, butter, white wine, and fresh herbs. Traditionally, it’s made by sautéing shrimp in a skillet on the stovetop, but here I decided to lean on my oven to make dinnertime easier. That way, I can set the table, make a side salad, or tackle anything else around the house while dinner cooks. Win-win!
Below, I’ve noted a few ways that you can make this recipe your own. Feel free to swap the gluten-free linguine for regular linguine or fettuccine if you don’t have any dietary restrictions. Feeding little ones? You can reduce the amount of red pepper flakes or omit them altogether if that will please younger palates in your house. I’m all about easy, delicious, and customizable meals and this recipe really is the epitome of that!
ingredients:
- Garlic Cloves
- Shallot
- Crushed Red Pepper Flakes
- Dry White Wine
- Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- Fresh Parsley
- Lemon Zest
- Kosher Salt
- Freshly Ground Black Pepper
- Large Shrimp
- Gluten-Free Linguine
- Freshly Grated Parmesan Cheese (Optional)
- Lemon Wedges
step-by-step:
step one: preheat the oven
Preheat the oven to 375℉.
step two: bring the water to a boil
Bring a large pot of water to boil.
step three: assemble and bake the shrimp
In a 9×13-inch baking dish, add the garlic, shallots, red pepper flakes, wine, olive oil, parsley, lemon zest, salt, pepper, and shrimp. Toss until well combined. Bake until shrimp is cooked through, about 13 minutes.
step four: cook the pasta
Add pasta to the boiling water with plenty of salt (about 1 tablespoon) and cook according to package directions.
step five: assemble the pasta
Remove the shrimp from the oven and drain the pasta. Add the pasta to the baking dish with the shrimp and gently toss until coated. Add the Parmesan (if using) and toss once more. Taste and add more salt as needed.
step six: garnish and serve
Divide the pasta among four bowls, top with parsley, and serve with lemon wedges.
I love Jovial Foods’s or Rummo gluten-free pasta, but you can use regular pasta too!
Yes! You can use seafood stock or low-sodium chicken broth.
I know y’all will love this Oven-Roasted Shrimp Scampi! I hope you turn to this recipe on nights when you need a simple dinner in a hurry—or you want something easy that will still impress a crowd!

Sooo easy for a crowd. Delicious!
Def a staple for the holiday! Added some red pepper spice. Ty for this. Can’t wait for cookbook!
I so want to make this for the Eve! Are you using frozen shrimp?
Hello! This looks delicious! I love your recipes. What kind of GF linguine do you use? Mine GF pasta always falls apart when I add sauce. Would love any tips! Thank you!
Rummo makes a great GF linguine!
Wonderful! I used only half of the red pepper flakes & it was great.
Such a simple and easy meal with lots of flavor. I cut down on the red pepper flakes by half to make it more friendly and I might even do 1/4 teaspoon next time since I have toddlers. Thanks, Alex!
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?
