Ingredients

  • ¼ cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • ¼ cup chopped parsley
  • ¼ cup grated parmesan cheese
  • ½ tsp pepper
  • 3 Tbsp unsalted butter
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced (about 1 Tbsp)
  • 1 lb. shrimp, peeled and deveined (I use jumbo, but you can use any size you prefer)

Instructions

  • Mix together lemon juice, parsley, and parmesan cheese in a small bowl. Set aside.
  • Place a large skillet over medium heat. Add butter and once butter is melted, add minced garlic to pan. Let garlic cook for about 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent burning.
  • Add the shrimp to the pan and toss to coat in the butter and garlic. Let it cook for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until shrimp are cooked through and pink.
  • Add lemon mixture to pan and toss to coat.
  • Serve shrimp over wild rice, brown rice, or quinoa with a vegetable side. Spoon sauce from pan over shrimp.
