Directions
This Quick Garlic Lemon Butter Shrimp recipe is literally easy as 1, 2, 3. If your making something on the side such as a vegetable or pasta. You will want to cook that first, 2 prepare the shrimp and 3 toss it all together.
Made with very simple ingredients, of shrimp, lemon, butter, garlic, parmesan and lemon pepper you can have this dish done in no time flat.
You can serve this delicious shrimp with pasta or a vegetable of your choice.
Sometimes I will serve this with some “Baked Brussel Sprouts” or whatever pasta I have on hand.
If you’re preparing it alongside some pasta, just be sure to cook the pasta first then drain and set aside, before cooking the shrimp.
Toss everything together and you have a fancy little dinner for yourself and whoever else is lucky to join you.
Once you try this shrimp, you will be hooked, just be careful to not overcook it or it will become rubbery.
You are going to want to cook it on medium low heat till it turns pink in color then you will want to remove it immediately from the heat and set aside.
Over cooked shrimp is not as good as fresh shrimp.
