Sauté the Shrimp
In a large skillet, melt the remaining tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they turn pink and opaque. Squeeze lime juice over the shrimp and season with black pepper.
