This Lemon Garlic Shrimp Scampi Recipe is a delicious 30 minutes meal that cooks in a buttery lemon garlic scamp sauce and breaded with a parmesan bread crumb topping.  A restaurant quality meal right at home!  So here is a little known fact about me.  I do not like shrimp.  Like at all.  But I really have never given it a chance.  I used to hate salmon and now it is my favorite thing to order.  My hubby on the other hand loves shrimp.  He is always asking me to make shrimp for dinner.  So I usually compromise and make shrimp a couple of times a month. Shrimp scampi is such a classic and delicious meal so I decided to give it a go.  I don’t like shrimp and let me tell you.  I LOVED this meal! This meal starts out with so many of my favorite flavors.  You first cook the shrimp in a butter lemon garlic sauce.  Is there even a better flavor combination that that?  I love shrimp because it seriously only takes minutes to cook.  You then top it with a parmesan herb bread crumb toppin
