Garlic Shrimp Recipe

Add Step-by-Step Photos	Elle / All my dishes 1 year, 7 months ago This is such a quick and easy dish! It's great over pasta, or just with bread for soaking up the sauce. The shrimp also make a great pizza topping--drain the sauce from the shrimp, and save it to dip your pizza crusts in! We had this again last ni... More Prep:5m Cook:10m Servings:23	Elle

Ingredients

4-5 tbsp olive oil

4 cloves garlic, minced

pinch of red pepper flakes

1/3 cup white wine (you know the rule, use wine you'd actually drink!)

1 lb shrimp, shelled and deveined

coarse salt

1 tbsp lemon juice

1 tbsp butter

chopped parsley to garnish

Directions

This dish is all in the timing.

Get everything ready to go ahead of time and that way, you can add it to the pan without having to run around the kitchen.

Otherwise, you'll end up with rubbery overcooked shrimp, instead of the tender little morsels they are.

Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat, and add the garlic.

Cook slowly for a minute or two to flavor the oil with garlic, but be careful not to burn it.

Add the red pepper flakes and increase the heat to medium high.

Add the wine and let this go for about a minute, then add the shrimp.

Season with salt.

Cook until the shrimp is almost done (this will only take a couple of minutes.)

Add the lemon juice and butter to finish the sauce.

Garnish with finely chopped parsley.
