Fancy name, easy recipe.
If you can dump some ingredients you probably have in your pantry right now in a slow cooker, you can do this.
We always have shrimp in the house. It’s tasty, easy to cook up and can be eaten with pasta, bread, couscous, just about anything.
I forgot to get something ready for the slow cooker in the morning, and found myself at 4:30 p.m. doing the whats-for-dinner scramble. This was it! If you like Shrimp Scampi, you will love this dish!
My secret ingredient is Whole Foods 365 Herbes de Provence. It is my one trick pony spice! Put it on veggies, fish, chicken….it makes just about everything taste better.
Get some pretty shrimp, deveined with shell still on. Rinse well.
This is the ticket. Pretty much makes it all better. It’s a no fail.
Comes out to only $2.80 per serving!
Ingredients
- 1-1 1/2 teaspoon 365 Whole Foods Everyday Value Herbes de Provence

- 1 pound Raw Shelled Shrimp
- 1/2 stick of butter

Thanks Maryanne!!
That is quite a good price for a shrimp dinner. Never thought to make it in a slow cooker! I don't actually eat shrimp but the family does!
Hi Liz! It's very affordable! Just the cost of shrimp really!
If the shell is on, did you take the shell off before serving?
Hi Angel! It's up to you! I serve them with shell on, my family likes to peel them. You could peel them before serving though!
I'm always looking for slow cooker recipes, and this one looks like a keeper. Good luck Isra!
Thanks Sharon! Good luck to you too!
