Shrimp in butter garlic sauce

Serves: 2
Cook time: 15 mins

Ingredients

4 Tbsp Butter, unsalted
3 cloves Garlic
4 Tbsp Lemon juice
1 lbs Shrimp

Steps

Crush/chop 3-4 cloves of garlic. Do not slice (doesn't melt into sauce enough).

Put 1 tablespoon of butter into a frying pan and fry the garlic. Once the garlic is brown, proceed.

If shrimp is not pre-cooked: fry shrimp in the butter and garlic.

Once shrimp is cooked (or pre-cooked), add shrimp, rest of butter to pan. Fry for about 5 minutes.

(Optional) Add lemon juice

Spice with pepper, parsely, Herbs de Provence or whatever else you like

Notes

Preparation Notes

Defrost shrimp by soaking in cold water for 30 minutes

Variations

Possibly experiment with only 3 Tbsp of butter

Need a lot of parsely if coating in pan, most of it ends up remaining in the sauce

Instead of "dry plating", serve shrimp with the butter sauch in own shallow bowl

Last preparation used 2 cloves garlic, very thinly sliced, didn't work well, garlic didn't melt enough, switch back to crushing and dicing
