Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound raw large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice, freshly squeezed
- 1 cup white wine or chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
Prepare the shrimp by rinsing them under cold water and patting them dry with a paper towel.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter.
Once the butter has melted, add the shrimp in a single layer. Cook for 2–3 minutes on one side until pink, then flip and cook another 2–3 minutes. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining butter and minced garlic. Sauté the garlic for 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
Deglaze the pan by pouring in the white wine or chicken broth. Bring the liquid to a simmer and let it reduce by about half, approximately 3–4 minutes.
Once reduced, stir in the lemon juice, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes, if using.
Return the shrimp to the skillet and toss them in the sauce. Cook for an additional 2–3 minutes to coat the shrimp in the flavors.
Sprinkle the dish with freshly chopped parsley and serve immediately with crusty bread, rice, or pasta of your choice.
