Hi everyone,

So, my partner used to work at a restaurant 10+ years ago and told me he loved the shrimp scampi that their chef made. So I tried to make shrimp scampi once and went with this recipe:

https://www.seriouseats.com/shrimp-scampi-pasta

I thought it was super delicious, and he agrees but he says the one their chef made had red sauce with maybe tomatoes or something. I can't find any recipes online for a tomato sauce based shrimp scampi, does anyone here have a recipe they can share? is this even a thing or is he misremembering? Thanks!

Edit: just wanted to mention that the restaurant was located in Belgium near French border and mostly run by French people so I don't know if the French make shrimp scampi differently..

    There are shrimp and red sauce pasta but they aren’t shrimp scampi. I had one recently linguine mare e monte

    I have never seen scampi made with tomato.
