Recipe Tips:

These shrimp with garlic butter are very easy to prepare, but a few tips will guarantee success:

Have all your ingredients ready. This recipe moves quickly, so having everything prepared and next to the stove keeps things from getting slow.
Know when the shrimp are done. As soon as they curl up and turn pink and opaque, they are ready.
Reduce the recipe in half if you wish. Like most seafood, it is best enjoyed fresh. If there are just one or two at home, this recipe can easily be halved.

INGREDIENTS

• 1 pound raw medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1/2 cup dry white wine
• 4 cloves garlic, cut into thin slices
• 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
• 3 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into small cubes
• 1/4 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves, coarsely chopped
• 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice                                                                                           

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels and season on all sides with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the shrimp and let them cook without moving for 1 minute. Flip the shrimp and add the wine, garlic, and red pepper flakes. Cook until the shrimp are opaque and the wine has reduced by half, about 2 minutes.
2. Remove the pan from the heat, add the butter cubes and stir until melted. Add the parsley and lemon juice, stir to combine, and serve immediately.
