Garlic Butter Shrimp

Savor the Flavor

A delightful blend of garlicky, buttery goodness awaits, effortlessly crafted in 20 minutes or less!

A Match Made in Culinary Heaven

Garlic and butter, the ultimate culinary duo. The mere thought of combining these two brings sheer culinary bliss. In a shrimp skillet, their union is nothing short of perfection.

A Treat Worth Every Bite
For those mindful of diets or preparing for swimsuit season (which I probably should be doing), consider this a “cheat day” delicacy. Each succulent bite is a testament to its worth, and it’s ready in under 20 minutes.

A Must-Try Dish

Diet or not, this dish demands attention. And once made, it’s destined to be devoured. If you’re anything like me, you’ll find yourself making it thrice in a week, accompanied by crusty bread to mop up every drop of heavenly goodness.

For frozen shrimp, opt for an overnight thaw in the fridge or a quicker method under cold running water for 5-10 minutes. Ensure thorough drying to facilitate even browning.

Ingredients Overview

Gather 8 tablespoons of unsalted butter, 1 ½ pounds of medium shrimp, kosher salt, freshly ground black pepper, minced garlic, chicken stock, freshly squeezed lemon juice, and chopped fresh parsley leaves.

Cooking Instructions

1.Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add shrimp, seasoning with salt and pepper, and cook until pink (about 2-3 minutes); set aside.
2.Stir in minced garlic until fragrant (about 1 minute).
3.Add chicken stock and lemon juice, bringing to a boil; simmer until reduced by half (about 1-2 minutes).
4.Gradually stir in remaining 6 tablespoons of butter until melted and smooth.
5.Add shrimp back into the skillet and gently toss to combine.
6.Serve immediately, garnished with parsley leaves, if desired.
