Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 6 cloves Garlic cloves, roasted
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice, freshly squeezed
- 0.25 cup White wine
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves
- 0.5 teaspoons Red pepper flakes (optional)
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper, freshly cracked
- 8 ounces Linguine or angel hair pasta (optional)
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated (optional)
Instructions
If serving with pasta, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
Preheat a skillet over medium heat and add olive oil.
In a small bowl, mash the roasted garlic cloves into a paste using the back of a spoon.
Add the shrimp to the skillet in a single layer. Cook for 2-3 minutes on one side until pink and slightly golden. Flip the shrimp and cook another 2 minutes. Remove the shrimp and set aside.
Lower the heat to medium-low and add butter to the skillet. Once melted, stir in the roasted garlic paste, white wine, lemon juice, thyme leaves, red pepper flakes (if using), salt, and pepper. Let the sauce simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly reduced.
Return the shrimp to the skillet and toss to coat in the sauce. Cook for 1-2 minutes until shrimp are warmed through.
If serving over pasta, toss the cooked pasta in the skillet with the shrimp and sauce until evenly coated.
Garnish with chopped parsley and grated Parmesan cheese, if desired.
Serve immediately with crusty bread or a fresh side salad.
