Let’s whip up some shrimp that’s pure decadence! Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels—season ‘em with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes if you’re craving that heat. Get ‘em ready to shine!
Heat the olive oil in a big skillet over medium-high—add 2 tablespoons of butter and let it melt and bubble. Toss in the garlic—sauté for 30 seconds ‘til it’s fragrant. Oh, that smell’s gonna get you!
Add the shrimp in a single layer—don’t crowd ‘em! Cook for 2-3 minutes per side—‘til they’re pink and curled. Watch ‘em transform—juicy and golden in that buttery bath!
Drop in the last 2 tablespoons of butter—let it melt and coat every shrimp. Sprinkle the parsley over the top—gives it that fresh, green pop. Taste one—garlicky, buttery perfection, right?
Pull the skillet off the heat—give it a quick stir to soak up all that sauce. If you’ve got lemon wedges, squeeze some juice over it—cuts through the richness with a bright zing!
Serve it up hot—pile it over rice, pasta, or just grab a fork and go to town. Dip some bread in that garlic butter sauce if you’re smart—this is quick, luscious, and oh-so-addictive. Dive in!
