Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 0.25 cup all-purpose flour
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons capers, drained
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice, freshly squeezed
- 0.25 cup dry white wine (optional)
- 0.5 cup chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Rinse the shrimp under cold water and pat dry with a paper towel. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
Place the flour on a plate and lightly dredge the shrimp, shaking off any excess flour.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and 2 tablespoons of butter over medium-high heat until the butter has melted.
Add the shrimp in a single layer and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until they turn pink and are just cooked through. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Stir until melted.
Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute, being careful not to let it burn.
Add the capers, lemon juice, and white wine (if using). Cook for 2-3 minutes, allowing the liquid to slightly reduce.
Pour in the chicken broth and continue to cook for another 2 minutes, letting the sauce thicken slightly.
Return the cooked shrimp to the skillet and toss to coat them in the sauce. Cook for 1-2 minutes to heat the shrimp through.
Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle the dish with chopped parsley. Serve immediately over pasta, rice, or with crusty bread for dipping.
