Time 25m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

25 -30 large shrimp, raw and peeled (or jumbo)
3 tablespoons chopped garlic, fresh (see tip) or 3 tablespoons from a jars (see tip)
1 cup fresh parsley, chopped
2 teaspoons paprika
fresh ground sea salt, to taste (see tip)
fresh ground pepper, to taste
1/2 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons butter

Steps:

  • In a large Ziplock freezer bag, mix everything except the butter and swish it around good to coat all of the shrimp. Or, mix everything in a large bowl and cover TIGHTLY with Saran wrap.
  • Refrigerate for 1 hour.
  • Preheat large heavy bottom pan with the butter in it on medium. Toss shrimp around for about 10 minutes until pink and lightly browned.
  • TIPS: Do not substitute with garlic powder OR dried parsley! Sea salt is stronger than table salt so use less than normal. Table salt can be substituted.
  • Serve with steak or pasta with a white sauce.
  • I KNOW THIS IS VERY SIMILAR TO MY OTHER SHRIMP RECIPE, BUT I MADE IT THIS WAY TONIGHT AND IT WAS SO UNBELIEVABLE THAT I HAD TO POST IT! EVEN BETTER THAN MY OTHER SHRIMP RECIPE!

PERFECT PAN-SEARED SHRIMP WITH GARLIC BUTTER



Perfect Pan-Seared Shrimp With Garlic Butter image

from America's Test Kitchen TV show. Their note: The cooking times below are for 21/25 shrimp (that is, the size of the shrimp is such that there are 21 to 25 in 1 pound). If 21/25 shrimp are not available, adjust cooking times slightly. Either a nonstick or traditional skillet will work for this recipe, but a nonstick will simplify cleanup.

BEST SHRIMP DISH EVER RECIPE - (4/5)



Best Shrimp Dish Ever Recipe - (4/5) image

Provided by clawson

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 stick butter
1 lemon, sliced
1 pound fresh shrimp
1 package dried Italian seasoning

Steps:

  • Melt a stick of butter in the pan. Slice one lemon and layer it on top of the butter. Put down fresh shrimp, and sprinkle with one package of dried Italian seasoning. Put in the oven and bake at 350 for 15 minutes. Best Shrimp you will EVER taste:)

Tips:

  • Use fresh shrimp. Fresh shrimp will have a more delicate flavor and texture than frozen shrimp. If you are using frozen shrimp, thaw them completely before cooking.
  • Season the shrimp well. Shrimp can easily be overpowered by other flavors, so it is important to season them well. Use a variety of spices and herbs to create a flavorful marinade or seasoning rub.
  • Do not overcook the shrimp. Shrimp cooks very quickly, so it is important to be careful not to overcook them. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and rubbery.
  • Serve the shrimp immediately. Shrimp is best served immediately after it is cooked. This will help to preserve the shrimp's flavor and texture.

Conclusion:

Baked shrimp is a quick, easy, and delicious meal that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. By following the tips in this article, you can create a baked shrimp dish that is sure to impress your family and friends.
