Garlic Butter Shrimp

post-title

Garlic Butter Shrimp is one of my favorite easy go-to meals. It only takes 10 minutes to prepare and I can customize the amount, making just one for myself or 4 for the whole family.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound medium shrimp , raw and peeled and patted dry
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup grape tomatoes , halved
  • 4-5 garlic cloves , minced
  • 2 tablespoons flat leaf parsley , roughly chopped
  • coarse sea salt & ground black pepper

Directions

  1. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. If the skillet isn't cast iron or non-stick, then give it a quick spritz of non-stick cooking spray.
  2. Add the raw shrimp, cooking for approximately 2-3 minutes on each side, depending on size. Cook until the shrimp are slightly opaque and the tails curl.
  3. Reduce the heat to low and add the butter, garlic, parsley and tomatoes. Stir until melted, approximately 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  4. Serve over quinoa, pasta, rice or anything else you love.
  5. If you've tried this recipe, come back and let us know how it was in the comments or star ratings.
