Ingredients
- Squeeze half a lemon over the completed meal.
- 3 tablespoons finely minced parsley
- 4 minced garlic cloves
- a cup and a third of dry white wine
- Unsalted butter, six teaspoons
- Olive oil, 1 tbsp (or canola oil)
- One-half teaspoon of paprika, ground
- three teaspoons of chicken stock
- Black pepper, ground, to taste
- 0.5 teaspoons of salt
- 1 pound of peeled and deveined raw big shrimp
Instructions
- Toss together the salt, pepper, and paprika before adding it to the shrimp.
- In a large skillet, preheat the oil over medium-high heat. When heated through, add shrimp and cook for 1–2 minutes on each side. To keep the shrimp warm, take them out of the pan and cover.
- Stirring often to prevent burning, add the butter and garlic to the same pan and cook, stirring, for 1 minute, until fragrant.
- Cook for 3–4 minutes after adding the broth and wine.
- Reintroduce the shrimp to the skillet. Cook for a further 1-2 minutes after adding fresh parsley.
