A delightful and quick shrimp recipe infused with garlic and butter, perfect for a flavorful meal.
Peel and mince the garlic cloves.
Mincing the garlic finely ensures it evenly flavors the butter.
Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat.
Use medium heat to prevent the butter from burning.
Add the minced garlic to the melted butter and sauté until fragrant.
Stir constantly to avoid the garlic from browning too much.
Add the shrimp to the skillet and sprinkle with salt. Cook until the shrimp turn pink and are cooked through.
Flip the shrimp halfway through cooking for even doneness.
Squeeze the juice of the lemon over the shrimp and stir to combine.
Adding lemon juice at the end preserves its fresh flavor.
Transfer the shrimp to serving plates and pour the garlic butter sauce over them.
Serve immediately to enjoy the dish at its best.
