Lemon garlic shrimp is bursting with flavor, easily ready in just 20 minutes!


INGREDIENTS

2 pounds large shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon cracked black pepper
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
4 cloves garlic, minced
3/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, divided

How to make it:

Prepare ingredients before you begin cooking. Do not skip this step.

In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt 2 tablespoons butter.

Add garlic to the skillet and cook about 1 minute.

Add shrimp, salt, and pepper. Cook for 1 minute without stirring. Continue cooking until shrimp begin turning pink (about 2-3 minutes).

Remove shrimp from pan and set aside in a bowl. (They will be returned to the skillet to continue cooking).

Add lemon juice to skillet and bring to a boil. Reduce to simmer and cook until liquid is reduced by half.

Add remaining butter and cook until melted. Add 1/2 of parsley. Stir to combine. Add shrimp back into the pan. Stir to combine. Cook until shrimp are opaque, about 2-3 minutes stirring occasionally.

Top with remaining parsley and serve with a lemon wedge if desired.

Serve with vegetables and enjoy!
