I'm here to blow your minds; the shell on version(authentic) served no purpose other than to save cook time and prep time for the kitchen to serve more people more quickly, nothing to do with flavor. Also some weirdos eat the shell along with the shrimp, no idea how but some people do. Never tried it, so now you can feel good about making the modified version and still feel authentic just reduce the cook time for shell off so your shrimp don't dry out so quickly and use less seasoning to avoid too much problems solved

I watched a TV show that explained why you only get shrimp tails in the store. They explained that it cost too much money to freeze and ship the whole shrimp when people only ate the tails. Then I moved and went to an Asian grocer and the only shrimp they sold was whole shrimp. They say it adds a lot more flavor, even if you aren't eating the heads. I don't know if I believe it though. Maybe you could check that out too?

Nooooo, scampi absolutely does not mean shrimp, it's something completely different. Many people think it's the same thing probably because many restaurants sell their shrimp as scampi to look fancy or something - scampi basically are tiny lobsters and are more expensive and, depending on one's taste, more delicate than shrimp. If you order a scampi dish at a restaurant an you get shrimp then you have been scammed.

You can use the shells to make a simple shrimp stock(Chef John does it in a video, then cook the liquid down to a tablespoon, and add it to the bowl with the garlic mixture.
Would only require a few extra seconds to cook the extra liquid away after you added the garlic mixture to the shrimp.

You must go once it's open again. Go to Oahu and make your way to the shrimp farms and trucks in Kahuku - also a gorgeous drive. Giovanni's is the most famous but there are a few different places to try. Giovanni's is also at the North Shore (Haleiwa. Absolutely amazing food. You'll love it.

I actually made two versions of this dish (with and without shells) for my family one night just to see which they liked more! no shells won because the seasoning was actually on the shrimp and I was able to brown the meat.
you can save the shells for stock!

THANK YOU for this recipe! There was a small restaurant in my hometown that had this on their menu and I used to get it every single time we ate there. They closed around 9 years ago and I have been on the hunt for this recipe ever since! Thank you Chef John!

You've never been to Hawaii.
Chef John, you'll have to go there. (After they lift the quarantine, of course) I've only been once, but aside from the wonderful weather, water and scenery; what I still remember most was the amazing food!

At my restaurant I wanted to offer more gluten free options. So I tried coating the shrimp in rice flour instead of wheat flour before they were sauteed. I found the rice flour to deliver a lighter and crispier result. I never looked back.

This is best watched while enjoying garlic shrimps. Hawaian garlic shrimps.
dangit, Mr. F. Wishes, couldn't you have us cook before you upload, so we can taste it while watching? I mean, it's just the list of ingredients, innit?
