Maybe many people like to eat the shrimp,me too.But most of the people do not
know how to cook the delicious shrimp.Shrimp is a fabulous choice to get
some lean protein on your plate. It’s inexpensive, especially when purchased
frozen, plus it defrosts in minutes. If you’re looking to tame your waist line,
most sea food can help you do that. Stow away a few packages of these tasty
crustaceans in your freezer for future meals.
The ginger in this recipe is meant to give that gentle spice that hits the
back of your throat, and the intent for the fresh lemon juice is to bring other
flavors to the forefront. This is great when tangled into some nutty brown rice,
but it would be even better with some toasted artisan bread.
Serves 2
Ingredients
2 teaspoons olive oil
8 oz fresh shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 teaspoons garlic, finely grated or finely minced
1 tablespoon ginger, finely grated or finely minced
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes, or to taste
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
1/4 cup flat-leaf Italian parsley, finely chopped
zest of half a lemon &
freshly squeezed lemon juice, (a few tablespoons to 1/4 cup, or to your
taste)
Directions
Heat the olive oil over medium high heat in a small or medium size
skillet.
When the oil is hot, add the shrimp, ginger, garlic, red pepper flakes, lemon
zest, salt, and pepper. It’s important for the ginger and garlic to be on top of
the shrimp early in the cooking process to avoid any burning.
Cook the shrimp 1-2 minutes to cook on this side, lower the heat to
medium-low and stir everything together.
Cook an additional 2 minutes. Swirl in the butter, pour in the lemon juice,
and sprinkle with the fresh parsley.
