Norway lobsters in Italy? (6)

I believe the answer is:

scampi

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'norway lobsters' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'in italy?' is the wordplay.
'in' becomes 'scamp' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'italy?' becomes 'i'.
'scamp'+'i'='SCAMPI'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for scampi that I've seen before include "Crumbed prawns" , "Crumby seafood dish" , "Cooked Norway lobsters" , "Breaded prawns" , "Dish of crustaceans" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
