My all time favorite shrimp are ones that are loaded with butter and garlic. This recipe is very similar to Gambas al Ajillo, a Spanish tapas dish that cooks shrimp in a lot of olive oil, garlic and red pepper flakes. I took inspiration from that recipe and made it with butter instead. It results in a sweet, garliicky and delicious shrimp dish that comes together in under ten minutes!

RECIPE:

1 lb cleaned and deveined shrimp

salt

1/4 cup butter

20 cloves garlic, minced

1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes

1 lemon, juiced

2 tbsp parsley, minced for garnish

步驟

STEP 1.

Season the shrimp with salt and set aside while you do the other prep.

STEP 2.

In a large stainless steel pan over medium heat, add the butter. Once the butter has melted and is bubbling, add the shrimp and lay flat, make sure each shrimp are touching the pan. Let it cook on the first side until the shrimp are half way cooked up the side, around 2-4 minutes.

STEP 3.

Add the garlic and red pepper flakes and begin stirring the shrimp and coating it withe the garlic and red pepper flakes. Flip the shrimp to the uncooked side and cook or 2-3 minutes. Once the shrimp are pink throughout, add the lemon juice and stir to combine.

STEP 4.

Serve with the butter lemon sauce from the pan, garnish with parsley and enjoy!
