Ingredients
-
2 tablespoons butter
-
1 pound shrimp, peeled and deveined
-
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
-
2 garlic cloves, minced
-
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
-
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
Instructions
-
Heat the butter in a large sauté pan over medium heat until melted and lightly bubbling.

Add the shrimp and kosher salt. Sauté for about 2 minutes.

Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 additional minute, or until the shrimp are pink, opaque, and cooked through.
-
Remove from heat and drizzle with lemon juice. Sprinkle with fresh parsley and toss to coat evenly.

Serve immediately over pasta or alongside your favorite vegetables.
Notes
-
Shrimp cook quickly — be careful not to overcook, or they may become rubbery.
-
For extra richness, add an additional tablespoon of butter at the end.
-
A splash of white wine can be added after the garlic for added depth of flavor.
-
Serve over linguine, angel hair pasta, zucchini noodles, or rice.

Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
