One of my favorite dishes when I go out to eat is shrimp scampi -- I love me some butter and garlic and shrimp. However it's got a ton of fat in it (which is probably why it tastes so good) and I don't go out to eat a lot anymore. It's a waste of money because I can only eat a small portion of my plate and I have a two-year-old Bear. So I figured I could make it at home and make it a little healthier. Then I started looking around at my family of picky eaters and none of them like shrimp and it seemed ridiculous to make a dinner that I was only going to be able to eat a little bit of. So I thought, "Why not chicken (cluck cluck)? They like chicken." And thus this recipe was born.
I think it would also work amazing with shrimp if you're not surrounded by that which are picky eaters.
