Steps:
- Heat the oil (2 tablespoons) in a large skillet (I prefer nonstick for this recipe) over medium heat. Add the minced garlic (2 cloves/1 teaspoon), dried oregano (1 teaspoon), and crushed red pepper if using (1/2 teaspoon). Sauté until fragrant and garlic is a little toasted, but not burned (turn heat down to medium-low if necessary), about 2-3 minutes.
- Meanwhile, pat shrimp dry and season with kosher salt (1/2 teaspoon) and black pepper (1/2 teaspoon).
- Add the shrimp to the skillet and sauté over medium-high heat, until almost cooked completely though and opaque, about 2 minutes on each side.
- Add the lemon juice and white wine (1/4 cup). Stir to coat the shrimp in everything, and continue cooking until liquid has reduced almost completely and thickened (about 2-3 minutes), coating the shrimp in a thick sauce. Transfer to a serving platter or individual plates, making sure to drizzle all the sauce from the skillet on top of the shrimp to serve.

SAUTEED SHRIMP WITH LEMON AND GARLIC
My favorite way to saute fresh shrimp. This is so quick and simple. Serve over rice or angel hair pasta (I usually saute a little more garlic in olive oil and toss it with the pasta before topping with the shrimp). Yum!

GARLIC & HERB ROASTED SHRIMP
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
- Melt the butter over low heat in a medium (10-inch) saute pan. Add the olive oil, garlic, rosemary, red pepper flakes, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper and cook over low heat for one minute. Off the heat, zest one of the lemons directly into the butter mixture.
- Meanwhile, arrange the shrimp snugly in one layer in a large (12-inch) round ovenproof sauté pan (or 10 × 13-inch baking dish) with only the tails overlapping. Pour the butter mixture over the shrimp. Sprinkle with the sea salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Slice the ends off the zested lemon, cut five (1/4-inch-thick) slices, and tuck them among the shrimp. Roast for 12 to 15 minutes, just until the shrimp are firm, pink, and cooked through. Cut the remaining lemon in half and squeeze the juice onto the shrimp. Serve hot with the toasted bread for dipping into the garlic butter.

Steps:
- Finely grate zest of 3 lemons. Juice all 4 lemons; strain juice, and set aside. Place shrimp in a large bowl; add lemon zest, garlic, and 1/4 cup olive oil; toss well to coat evenly. Season with salt and pepper.
- Heat a large saute pan over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil, and heat until oil is hot but not smoking. Working in batches, arrange a single layer of shrimp in pan, being careful not to overcrowd pan. Cook until underside is golden brown, 45 to 60 seconds. Turn over, and continue cooking until other side is golden brown and shrimp is cooked through, about 1 minute. Transfer to a large serving platter. Deglaze pan with 1 1/2 tablespoons reserved lemon juice, stirring up any browned bits with a wooden spoon, and pour pan sauce over shrimp. Cover loosely with foil while repeating process with remaining batches, adding 1 tablespoon oil each time.
Tips:
- Use fresh shrimp: Fresh shrimp have a sweeter, more delicate flavor than frozen shrimp. If using frozen shrimp, thaw them completely before cooking.
- Clean the shrimp properly: Remove the shells and devein the shrimp. This will help to remove any grit or sand from the shrimp.
- Use a large skillet: This will help to prevent the shrimp from overcrowding and steaming instead of sautéing.
- Use high heat: Sautéing the shrimp over high heat will help to quickly cook them and prevent them from becoming tough.
- Don't overcrowd the skillet: If you overcrowd the skillet, the shrimp will steam instead of sautéing.
- Cook the shrimp until they are opaque: This is the best way to ensure that they are cooked through.
- Season the shrimp to taste: You can use salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, or any other desired seasonings.
- Serve the shrimp immediately: Sautéed shrimp are best served immediately after they are cooked.
Conclusion:
Sautéed shrimp with lemon and garlic is a quick and easy dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is also a great way to impress your guests. The shrimp are cooked in a flavorful sauce made with lemon, garlic, butter, and white wine. Serve the shrimp over rice, pasta, or your favorite vegetables.
