3. Cook the Shrimp
Add the shrimp in a single layer. Sauté for 2–3 minutes per side, or until pink and opaque. Don’t overcook—shrimp goes from perfect to rubbery quickly!
4. Add Lemon & Finish
Stir in lemon juice and zest. Toss to coat everything in the garlicky, buttery goodness. Sprinkle with parsley and, if using, red pepper flakes or a splash of white wine.
5. Serve Immediately
Serve over angel hair pasta, rice pilaf, or alongside warm bread and a crisp green salad.
