🍲 Garlic Butter Shrimp with Rice (10 Minutes!)

Ingredients:

• 1 lb (450g) shrimp, peeled and deveined

• 2 tablespoons butter

• 4 cloves garlic, minced

• 1 tablespoon lemon juice (or more to taste)

• Salt and pepper, to taste

• Optional: pinch of red pepper flakes or chopped parsley

• Cooked rice, for serving (use pre-cooked or microwave rice to keep it under 10 minutes)

Instructions:

1. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add butter and let it melt.

2. Add garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant (don’t brown it!).

3. Add shrimp, season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using). Cook for 2–3 minutes per side, until pink and opaque.

4. Squeeze in lemon juice and stir to coat everything in that buttery garlic goodness.

5. Serve immediately over hot cooked rice. Garnish with parsley or a lemon wedge if you like.

Optional Add-ons:

• Add baby spinach or frozen peas in the last minute of cooking.

• Swap rice for quinoa or pasta.

• Serve in lettuce cups for a low-carb option.
