Can you make shrimp scampi without wine?

Yes. I make it with just butter, cooking oil, garlic and shrimp. It's good. Over medium-high heat - Melt one and a half sticks of butter and 1/4 to 1/2 cup Crisco Oil. When the butter & oil are melted and bubbly - Add 5 cloves of garlic minced very small. Add the shrimp. Cook and stir until all of the shrimp turn pink. I use the 1/4 cup oil for one pound of shrimp. More oil if I have more shrimp.
