Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels and season evenly with sea salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes.
Heat the olive oil and half of the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat until the butter is melted and shimmering.
Add the shrimp to the skillet in a single layer and sear for 2 minutes per side until they are pink and opaque.
Reduce the heat to medium, add the remaining butter and minced garlic, and sauté for 1 minute until the garlic is fragrant.
Stir in the fresh lemon juice and chopped parsley, tossing the shrimp thoroughly to coat them in the buttery sauce.
Serve the garlic butter shrimp immediately over the warm white rice, drizzling any extra sauce from the pan over the top.
