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.

This was a huge hit! I made half the recipe since there’s just two of us. My husband asked me to make it again. For a recipe that is quick and easy, it sure is delicious!
so happy you enjoyed it!
Can I add bacon?
This was so so easy and delish! Didn’t have white wine so used chicken stock, came out perfectly. Amazing flavors.
So Happy! THanks, Katie!
My 15 year old, picky eater son just told me this was the best thing I’ve ever made him. And he asked for more.
YAY! Makes me so happy, my kiddos love this one, too!
Is there a way to incorporate broccoli into this? Could I cook broccoli with the shrimp then mix it with the pasta?
Broccoli would need to roast a little longer than the shrimp so I’d worry you’d overcook the shrimp! Broccolini cooks faster since it is thinner, so I would suggest trying that or cutting the broccoli into small pieces so it roasts in the same time as the shrimp. Let us know once you try this!
Perfection!!! So simple, delicious, little to no mess….nothing better than a quick weeknight meal that tastes great. Thanks for sharing
Glad you loved it, Meredith!
What is the count on the shrimp? I would think small shrimp would be way over done?
What can I sub for white wine?
I would add a little fish stock in sub of the wine if needed.
Absolutely delicious!!!! 10/10 will make again
This was good Alex, thank you! I did still have quite a bit of raw shallot & garlic taste after the 13 minutes in the oven, so the next time I may try sautéing those first for a minute or two.
