Excerpt
Francese or ‘Scampi-Less’ Sauce
½ cup white wine
4 tablespoons olive oil
1 clove garlic, minced
1 teaspoon capers
1/8 cup toasted pine nuts
and or 1/8 cup bread crumbs
¼ teaspoon salt and pepper
2 tablespoons fresh parsley
juice of 1 lemon
Shrimp scampi or Francese without the shrimp? You bet. And I definitely prefer it this way. Sauté the garlic in the oil with the breadcrumbs or pine nuts. Be careful not to burn the garlic. Add the rest of the ingredients and cook for about 10 minutes. Serve with you favorite pasta.
