INGREDIENTS
6 oz Shrimp
1 tbsp Unsalted Butter
1 cup Asparagus
2 cloves Garlic
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 tsp Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper to taste
Pinch Crushed Red Pepper Flakes
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Toss the asparagus with a teaspoon of olive oil, salt, and pepper, and spread them out on a baking sheet.
Roast the asparagus in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized.
While the asparagus is roasting, pat the shrimp dry and season lightly with salt, pepper, and a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes.
In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until they turn pink and opaque.
Stir in the lemon juice and allow the flavors to meld for another minute.
Plate the garlic butter shrimp alongside the roasted asparagus, and drizzle any extra sauce from the skillet over the top.
Serve immediately and enjoy your light yet flavorful meal.
