Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

  2. Add the shrimp to the skillet, seasoning with salt and pepper to taste. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until they turn pink and opaque.

  3. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.

  4. Deglaze the skillet by pouring in the chicken broth and white wine. Scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.

  5. Allow the mixture to simmer and reduce by half, approximately 3-4 minutes.

  6. Stir in the butter and lemon juice, swirling the pan until the butter melts and the sauce thickens slightly.

  7. Return the shrimp to the skillet, coating them in the flavorful garlic sauce. Cook for an additional minute to heat the shrimp through.

  8. Serve the shrimp in garlic sauce hot, garnished with chopped parsley for a pop of color and freshness. Pair with your favorite pasta or crusty bread to soak up the delicious sauce.
