Scampi Monte Carlo
20 shrimp, cleaned, peeled & de-veined
2 tsp. fresh basil, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
3/4 pint whipping cream
Flour
Salt & black pepper to taste
1 oz. butter

Clean the shrimp (peel, de-vein, cut in half length-wise and rinse under cold water). Season cleaned shrimp with salt and black pepper to taste; dredge through a bit of flour. Preheat a frying pan with the butter and olive oil on high heat. Sauté the shrimp until they brown slightly; add minced garlic. Remove pan from heat; mix in chopped basil. Return to heat; add the cream and mix well. Cook until reduced, about two or three minutes. Serve at once.
