Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a large nonstick skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil and ¼ cup butter over medium-high heat. Once the butter melts and starts to foam, add the tiger shrimp in batches. Sauté the shrimp for about 1 minute on each side until they turn pink and opaque. Remove the shrimp from the pan and set them aside on a plate.
- Lower the heat to medium, and add the remaining ¼ cup of butter to the same skillet. As the butter melts, stir in 4 cloves of minced garlic and the zest of one lemon. Cook for approximately 1 minute, stirring frequently until the garlic becomes fragrant and slightly golden, being careful not to let it burn.
- Return the sautéed shrimp to the pan, tossing them in the luscious garlic butter sauce. Add squeeze of fresh lemon juice and 1 teaspoon of Italian seasoning to the mix, stirring well to coat the shrimp evenly with the flavorful sauce. Allow everything to heat through for about 1-2 minutes.
- Sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the garlic butter tiger shrimp for a pop of color and freshness. Serve immediately while it's hot.
