Lemon, garlic, shallots, butter, fresh herbs, and white wine combine to create a delightful shrimp dish that is full of flavor. Once the prep is done, everything comes together in a snap! Serve it over white rice with fresh, steamed broccoli on the side. If you prefer, you could serve it over a crusty bread to get every drop of the delicious sauce.

Steps:
- Combine olive oil and butter in a large, nonstick skillet and melt butter over medium heat. Add shallots and cook until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
- Pour in white wine and lemon juice. Season with salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes and mix to combine. Bring to a boil and cook for 4 minutes.
- Add shrimp and 4 sprigs thyme, and cook until shrimp just begin to change color, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove shrimp from cooking liquid, place on a plate, and set aside.
- Continue boiling the liquid until reduced by half, 3 to 5 minutes.
- Return shrimp to the skillet, remove thyme sprigs, and add parsley. Cook until shrimp are bright pink on the outside and the meat is opaque, 1 to 2 minutes.
- Serve shrimp and sauce over hot, fluffy rice. Garnish each plate with fresh thyme sprigs, if desired.
