Garlic Butter Shrimp with Lemon Orzo
Sautéed shrimp tossed in a velvety garlic ghee sauce, served over a bed of bright lemon-infused orzo and wilted baby spinach.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz raw shrimp
0.25 cup dry orzo pasta
0.75 tbsp ghee
2 cloves garlic
1 cup fresh baby spinach
0.5 cup low-sodium chicken broth
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
0.5 tsp lemon zest
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tsp fresh parsley
PREPARATION
In a small saucepan, bring the chicken broth to a boil, then stir in the orzo, cover, and simmer on low for 8-10 minutes until the liquid is fully absorbed.
Pat the shrimp dry with a paper towel and season both sides evenly with sea salt and black pepper.
Melt the ghee in a large skillet over medium-high heat until it begins to shimmer.
Add the shrimp to the skillet in a single layer and sear for 2 minutes per side until they turn opaque and pink.
Lower the heat to medium, add the minced garlic, and sauté for 30 seconds until the aroma is released.
Toss in the fresh baby spinach and cook for 1 minute until the leaves are just wilted.
Stir the cooked orzo, lemon juice, and lemon zest into the skillet, tossing everything to combine with the garlic ghee.
Remove from heat and garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
