Shrimp With Lemon Garlic Butter Sauce Recipes

SHRIMP WITH LEMON GARLIC BUTTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium to medium-high heat.
• Meanwhile, pat the shrimp dry with a paper towel. Dust the shrimp with 1 tablespoon cornstarch (or flour).
• Add 2 tablespoons butter to hot skillet. When melted, add the shrimp and saute for 2-3 minutes per side until pink and slightly brown. Transfer the shrimp to a plate.
• Turn the heat down to medium-low and add the garlic. Cook for one minute, taking care not to burn the garlic. Add the remaining flour/cornstarch and stir to combine. Add the broth, whisking to combine. Bring to a gentle simmer and allow the sauce to thicken, 2-4 minutes.
• Add the lemon juice and whisk in the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter to create a silky sauce. Season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste. Add the shrimp back in and coat with the sauce.
• Serve with rice or pasta. Garnish with basil or parsley, lemon wedges, and crushed red pepper flakes, if desired.

15 MINUTE GARLIC SHRIMP IN LEMON BUTTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over high heat. Add the olive oil and red pepper flakes and allow the spice to infuse into the oil for 30 seconds.
• Add the shrimp to the pan and spread it out so it cooks evenly. Cook for about 1 minute flipping as needed. Add the garlic, lemon juice, and caper brine to the skillet and let cook for 1 minute.
• Add 1/2 of the parsley along with the cubes of butter and swirl the pan so butter starts to melt slowly, about 2-3 minutes. As the butter melts it should start forming a thick type of sauce. Add the remaining parsley and stir to combine. The shrimp should be opaque and cooked through. If the sauce starts to thicken too much, you can remove the shrimp to a serving dish and add a teaspoon of water to help thin it out to a pourable consistency. Keep in mind that this recipe creates just enough sauce to coat the shrimp but it is flavorful enough to serve with rice or pasta tossed in olive oil.

SHRIMP PASTA WITH LEMON-BUTTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook angel hair pasta in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, 4 to 5 minutes.

• Preheat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add enough chicken stock to cover the bottom of the skillet. Add 1 tablespoon butter with shrimp and lemon slices. Add parsley, salt, and pepper; cook shrimp until they are bright pink on the outside and the meat is opaque, about 4 minutes. Turn heat off, add tomatoes, and cover with a lid until the heat softens the tomatoes.
• Drain pasta and return to its pan. Add shrimp and tomato mixture and mix to combine. You may take out the lemon slices and squeeze the juice out of them or simply keep them mixed in.
• Add more chicken stock to cover the bottom of the skillet. Add 1 tablespoon butter, more parsley, and the reserved lemon juice. Let the butter melt and simmer, then pour sauce into the pasta along with Parmesan cheese. Stir until fully combined.
