Here’s a simple, really tasty Garlic Butter Shrimp you can make in about 10–15 minutes.
🍤 Garlic Butter Shrimp (Quick Recipe)
Ingredients:
- 300–500g shrimp (peeled & deveined)
- 3–5 cloves garlic (finely chopped)
- 3 tbsp butter
- 1–2 tbsp olive oil
- Salt & black pepper
- Chili flakes (optional)
- Lemon juice (1–2 tbsp)
- Fresh parsley (optional)
👨🍳 How to make it:
- Heat pan on medium heat and add olive oil + butter.
- Add garlic and sauté for 20–30 seconds (don’t burn it).
- Add shrimp, season with salt, pepper, and chili flakes.
- Cook shrimp for 2–3 minutes per side until pink and curled.
- Turn off heat and squeeze in lemon juice.
- Sprinkle parsley and serve.
🍽️ Best served with:
- Rice
- Pasta
- Garlic bread
- Or even as a salad topping
💡 Tip:
Don’t overcook the shrimp—once they turn pink and opaque, they’re done. Overcooking makes them rubbery.
If you want, I can turn this into a creamy version, spicy Asian-style version, or a low-calorie diet version.
