Shrimp in Garlic Butter

This is a simple and super yummy dish to make. It only takes 20 minutes or less to put the whole thing together.

Ingredients:

1 pound fresh or frozen medium or large sized shrimp
2 Tablespoons butter
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 Tablespoons fresh parsley OR 1 Tablespoon dried

Thaw shrimp, if needed. Peel and devein shrimp, if needed.
In a large skillet, heat the butter over medium high heat.
Add the shrimp and garlic.
Cook, stirring frequently for 1 to 3 minutes or until shrimp are pink.
Stir in the parsley.
Serve.

This will serve 3 to 4.

This goes fabulously with a side of cooked rice.
