🍽 Garlic Butter Shrimp Recipe 🍽
Instructions:
Prepare the Shrimp:
Rinse the shrimp under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Make sure they are well-drained to avoid excess moisture in the pan.
Sauté the Garlic:
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add olive oil and 2 tablespoons of butter. Once the butter melts, add the minced garlic. Sauté for 1-2 minutes, being careful not to burn the garlic.
Cook the Shrimp:
Add the shrimp to the skillet. Season with salt, pepper, paprika, and Italian seasoning. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the shrimp turn pink and opaque. Stir occasionally to ensure the shrimp cook evenly.
Add the Butter and Lemon:
Once the shrimp are cooked, reduce the heat to low. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter to the pan. Let the butter melt and coat the shrimp in a flavorful sauce. Squeeze in the lemon juice for extra tanginess and freshness.
Garnish and Serve:
Remove the skillet from heat. Garnish the shrimp with freshly chopped parsley. Serve the shrimp with lemon wedges on the side if desired.
Serving Suggestions:
Serve the garlic butter shrimp over rice, pasta, or alongside grilled vegetables. It’s perfect for a quick dinner or as a side dish for a larger meal.
