INGREDIENTS

  • Main Ingredients

    • 🦐 1 ½ pounds shrimp, shelled and deveined
    • 🍚 1 ½ cups cooked white rice

  • Sauce and Spices

    • ¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
    • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
    • ¼ cup minced shallot
    • 🧄 2 tablespoons minced garlic, divided
    • ½ cup dry white wine
    • 🍋 ¼ cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
    • 🧂 ½ teaspoon salt
    • ⅛ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
    • ⅛ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, or to taste
    • 4 sprigs fresh thyme
    • 🌿 3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
    • 6 sprigs fresh thyme for garnish (Optional)

STEPS

1

Combine olive oil and butter in a large, nonstick skillet and melt butter over medium heat. Add shallots and cook until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.

2

Pour in white wine and lemon juice. Season with salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes and mix to combine. Bring to a boil and cook for 4 minutes.

3

Add shrimp and 4 sprigs thyme, and cook until shrimp just begin to change color, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove shrimp from cooking liquid, place on a plate, and set aside.

4

Continue boiling the liquid until reduced by half, 3 to 5 minutes.

5

Return shrimp to the skillet, remove thyme sprigs, and add parsley. Cook until shrimp are bright pink on the outside and the meat is opaque, 1 to 2 minutes.

6

Serve shrimp and sauce over hot, fluffy rice. Garnish each plate with fresh thyme sprigs, if desired.
