Škampi na buzaru

Škampi na buzaru or Scampi alla busara is a traditional dish that is prepared with scampi as the main ingredient. The scampi are cleaned, but the shells are not removed, then stir-fried a bit and cooked in a sauce of olive oil, white wine, garlic, and breadcrumbs, seasoned with salt, pepper, and parsley.

The dish is served with bread for mopping up the juices. However, if tomatoes, most commonly in the form of canned tomatoes or tomato puree, are included, we’re talking about the ‘red’ version of škampi na buzaru. Also, the dish can include onions, a splash of sweet dessert wine prošek and lemon.
