Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Shrimp

    In a shallow dish, season the shrimp with salt and black pepper. Dredge each shrimp lightly in flour, shaking off the excess.

  2. 2

    Make the Egg Mixture

    In another bowl, whisk together the eggs and grated Parmesan cheese until well combined.

  3. 3

    Dip the Shrimp

    Dip each floured shrimp into the egg mixture, ensuring they are well coated.

  4. 4

    Sauté the Shrimp

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil and 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the shrimp in a single layer and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.

  5. 5

    Make the Sauce

    In the same skillet, add the remaining butter and minced garlic. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Pour in the white wine and chicken broth, scraping the bottom of the pan to deglaze. Cook for about 5 minutes until the sauce reduces slightly.

  6. 6

    Finish the Dish

    Stir in the lemon juice and return the shrimp to the skillet. Cook for an additional 2 minutes to heat through. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
