Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil and 2 tablespoons of butter over medium-high heat. Allow the butter to melt completely and bubble slightly, approximately 1-2 minutes.
- Add the shrimp to the skillet in a single layer, then season with a pinch of salt. Cook for about 2-3 minutes until they turn pink. Flip the shrimp and continue cooking for an additional 2 minutes until fully opaque and tender.
- Stir in the minced garlic and red pepper flakes into the skillet, cooking for another 30 seconds, ensuring not to burn the garlic.
- Once the garlic is fragrant, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter, along with fresh lemon juice and chopped parsley. Gently mix to combine.
- Remove from heat and serve immediately, garnishing with additional parsley if desired.

Notes
Ensure shrimp are fully thawed and patted dry before cooking; avoid burning garlic for best flavor. Experiment with veggies for added nutrition.
