I made this Garlic Butter Shrimp on Father's Day recently and it was so good! It's a super easy dish that feeds a lot of people!
Ingredients:
- 2 lbs fresh or frozen shrimp (I got large, frozen, uncooked, de-veined shrimp with tails on from Trader Joe's and put them in a colander under cold water until thawed.)
- salt and pepper
- 2 sticks cold butter (I use KerryGold grass fed Butter...you could also use Ghee)
- 4 large cloves garlic
- juice of 1 lemon
- 1 tsp sea salt
- 1/4 cup chopped parsley (plus extra for garnish)
- 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper
Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F
- Put all the shrimp in a single layer on one baking sheet (if doubling the recipe, use 2 baking sheets)
- Sprinkle the shrimp with salt and pepper.
- Pulse all of the other ingredients in a food processor and sprinkle in crumbles on top of the shrimp.
- Place in the oven for about 10-15 mins until shrimp is opaque, hot and garlic butter is bubbling.
- For serving and to keep hot, transfer to a large pot on low on the stove.
- Serve in large deep serving dishes and garnish with parsley.
- ...and for your non-paleo guests, you can put out crusty bread for dipping.
I served this shrimp with Baby Back Ribs and two side salads. They were even great heated up the next day!
You can serve this as a complete meal by serving it on top of Cauliflower Rice or zoodles! :)
