A delightful twist on the classic garlic shrimp, this recipe incorporates a hint of citrus and a touch of spice for a vibrant and flavorful dish.
Prepare the shrimp by peeling and deveining them, if not already done.
Using fresh shrimp enhances the flavor and texture of the dish.
Mince the garlic and zest the lemon, setting both aside.
Zesting the lemon before juicing makes it easier to handle.
Heat the butter in a skillet over medium heat until melted.
Use unsalted butter to control the saltiness of the dish.
Add the minced garlic and red pepper flakes to the skillet, cooking until fragrant.
Stir constantly to prevent the garlic from burning.
Add the shrimp to the skillet, cooking until pink and opaque.
Avoid overcooking the shrimp to maintain their tenderness.
Squeeze the lemon juice over the shrimp and season with salt and black pepper.
Adjust the seasoning to taste, adding more lemon juice if desired.
Garnish with chopped parsley and serve immediately.
Serve with crusty bread or over pasta for a complete meal.
