About This Dish

Olive Garden Shrimp Scampi is the lightest and most vegetable-forward pasta in the Classic Entrées catering lineup, priced at $66.79 for a pan serving 4 to 6 guests and totaling just 1,980 calories. The dish features shrimp sauteed in a garlic sauce tossed with fresh asparagus and tomatoes over angel hair pasta. At 72 grams of fat and 4,470 milligrams of sodium, this is the lowest-fat catering pasta on the Classic Entrées menu by a significant margin, making it the go-to option for guests who want a lighter but still flavorful choice.

Olive Garden Shrimp Scampi showcases the brand's garlic sauce at its most unobstructed, without a cream base competing with the shrimp. The combination of asparagus and tomatoes provides textural contrast and natural sweetness while keeping the dish bright and not heavy. At $66.79 per catering pan it offers the lowest calorie count per dollar of any catering pasta at Olive Garden. The light sauce and bright vegetables make it a strong pairing alongside richer dishes if you are building a spread of multiple catering pans for a large group event.
