Ingredients

  • 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice, freshly squeezed
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
  • 0.25 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Rinse and pat dry the shrimp with paper towels. Set aside.

Step 2

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until they turn pink and opaque. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.

Step 3

In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium-low and add the butter. Once melted, add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

Step 4

Pour in the heavy cream and stir to combine. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.

Step 5

Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and continue cooking until the sauce thickens slightly, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 6

Add the lemon juice, lemon zest, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using). Stir to incorporate.

Step 7

Return the cooked shrimp to the skillet, tossing them in the sauce to coat evenly. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to warm the shrimp through.

Step 8

Remove from heat and sprinkle the dish with freshly chopped parsley.

Step 9

Serve immediately over cooked rice, pasta, or with crusty bread for dipping. Enjoy!
