INSTRUCTIONS

Heat olive oil and 2 tablespoons of butter in a large pan or skillet. Add garlic and sauté until fragrant (about 30 seconds – 1 minute). Then add the shrimp, season with salt and pepper to taste and sauté for 1-2 minutes on one side (until just beginning to turn pink), then flip.

Pour in wine (or broth), add red pepper flakes (if using). Bring to a simmer for 1-2 minutes or until wine reduces by about half and the shrimp is cooked through (don’t overcook your shrimp).

Stir in the remaining butter, lemon juice, and parsley and take off the heat immediately.

Serve over rice, pasta, garlic bread, or steamed vegetables (cauliflower, broccoli, zucchini noodles).
Enjoy!
