Method

Shrimp Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Shrimp

    In a shallow bowl, combine the flour, salt, and black pepper. Dredge each shrimp in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess.

  2. 2

    Coat with Egg

    In another bowl, beat the eggs and mix in the grated Parmesan cheese. Dip the floured shrimp into the egg mixture, ensuring they are well-coated.

Cooking the Shrimp

  1. 3

    Heat Oil and Butter

    In a large skillet, heat the butter and olive oil over medium heat until melted and hot.

  2. 4

    Cook Shrimp

    Add the coated shrimp to the skillet in a single layer. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the shrimp are golden brown and cooked through. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.

Making the Sauce

  1. 5

    Sauté Garlic

    In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds, until fragrant.

  2. 6

    Add Broth and Lemon Juice

    Pour in the chicken broth and lemon juice, scraping the bottom of the skillet to deglaze. Bring to a simmer and cook for 3-5 minutes, allowing the sauce to reduce slightly.

  3. 7

    Finish the Sauce

    Stir in the chopped parsley and season with additional salt and pepper to taste. Return the cooked shrimp to the skillet, tossing them in the sauce.

Serving

  1. 8

    Plate the Dish

    Serve the shrimp immediately, spooning the sauce over the top. Garnish with additional parsley if desired.
