Number Of Ingredients 6

2 Tbsp extra light olive oil
2 clove garlic, pressed or minced
1/8 tsp cayenne pepper
1 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 Tbsp unsalted butter
salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

Steps:

  • 1. It's up to you whether you keep the tails, or remove them from the shrimp. I prefer to remove them prior to cooking.
  • 2. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic, and sprinkle with the cayenne pepper. Cook and stir until the garlic is fragrant, about 30 seconds.
  • 3. Add the shrimp and cook, stirring often, until the shrimp are opaque, about 2 minutes. DON'T OVER COOK!
  • 4. Add the butter and stir to coat the shrimp. Season with salt and pepper.
  • 5. Serve immediately. Enjoy!
