Savor the delicate flavors of succulent garlic butter shrimp kissed with fresh lemon, perfectly paired with a bed of fluffy quinoa. This dish harmoniously combines the savory richness of butter and the brightness of lemon, creating a well-balanced meal that's both satisfying and nutritious.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Shrimp, raw (tail-off) (~170g)
2 Garlic cloves (~6g)
1 tbsp Unsalted Butter (~14g)
1/2 Lemon (~50g)
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa (~93g)
2 tbsp Fresh Parsley
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Rinse and pat dry the shrimp. Peel and devein if necessary.
Finely chop the garlic cloves and roughly chop the fresh parsley.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Melt the butter in the skillet.
Add the garlic to the melted butter and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Place the shrimp in the skillet in a single layer and season lightly with salt and pepper. Sear the shrimp for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they turn pink and are cooked through.
Squeeze the juice from the half lemon over the shrimp during the last minute of cooking, allowing the flavors to meld.
Warm your pre-cooked quinoa if needed, or plate the quinoa as a warm bed.
Serve the garlic butter shrimp over a serving of quinoa and garnish with freshly chopped parsley. Enjoy!
