Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Shrimp

Rinse the shrimp under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Season the shrimp with salt and black pepper.

2

Sauté the Garlic

In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute, until fragrant but not browned.

3

Cook the Shrimp

Add the seasoned shrimp to the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the shrimp are pink and opaque.

4

Add Lemon Flavor

Stir in the lemon juice and lemon zest. Cook for an additional minute to allow the flavors to meld.

5

Finish and Serve

Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the chopped parsley. Serve immediately, drizzling the garlic lemon butter sauce over the shrimp.
