Technique to learn

Garlic Basting

Cooking protein gently in melted fat with abundant minced garlic so flavor penetrates without burning the garlic solids.

Instructions

Step 1: Pat shrimp dry with paper towels and toss in a bowl with all-purpose flour, paprika, half teaspoon salt, and quarter teaspoon black pepper.

Step 2: Heat olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 3: Add flour-dusted shrimp in an even single layer and sear for 2 minutes until bottom side turns golden.

Step 4: Flip shrimp over, add remaining 3 tablespoons butter and minced garlic directly into pan center, reducing heat to medium.

Step 5: Sauté garlic gently alongside shrimp for 2 to 3 minutes until garlic is fragrant and golden without burning.

Step 6: Pour fresh lemon juice across skillet, scraping up any delicious browned bits from pan floor.concept

Step 7: Remove skillet from heat as soon as shrimp are completely opaque and pink.

Step 8: Garnish with fresh chopped parsley and serve immediately alongside white rice.

Cooking tips

Watch minced garlic carefully once added; medium heat prevents butter from scorching.
Leave tail shells on shrimp for enhanced flavor during searing.
