Simple Dinners: Red Lobster Shrimp Scampi Copycat

Our family always loves a great seafood dinner. Shrimp is a huge hit, so much so that we try to buy it pretty regularly and make meals at home with it. I tend to purchase pre-cooked frozen shrimp, usually with tails off so I do not have to do too much extra work at meal prep. This makes it easy to consume seafood which we are constantly told to include in heart and brain-healthy diets. My husband absolutely loves Red Lobster it has always been one of his favorite restaurants. Since they do not offer a lot of gluten-free options...
