The beauty of shrimp scampi lies in its simplicity. Tender, pan-seared shrimp with a garlicky white wine-cream sauce and a nice pile of pasta. Boom. Done. Well, not quite done, because we've upped the ante by including ciabatta pull-apart bread full of cheesy goodness. You'll definitely want to keep this recipe card near the front of your binder so you can make it again and again.
