Instructions
- Prep shrimp:
- Pat shrimp dry with paper towels. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
- Cook garlic:
- In a large skillet, heat butter and olive oil over medium heat.
- Add garlic (and red pepper flakes if using) and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Cook shrimp:
- Add shrimp in a single layer. Cook 2–3 minutes per side until pink and opaque.
- Finish:
- Squeeze fresh lemon juice over shrimp and toss to coat.
- Garnish with chopped parsley.
- Serve:
- Serve immediately over rice, pasta, or with crusty bread to soak up the garlic butter.
💡 Tips & Variations:
- Add a splash of white wine to the pan while cooking shrimp for extra flavor.
- Toss with cooked pasta and Parmesan for a creamy garlic shrimp pasta.
- For a spicy kick, mix in a little smoked paprika or Cajun seasoning.
