GARLIC SHRIMP

I make shrimp all the time, but this recipe really tasted yummy – very lemony. Love the addition of fresh thyme and shallots to the mixture as well. The shrimp burst with flavor.
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 pounds peeled and deveined, large raw shrimp
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 cup butter
4 fresh thyme sprigs
2 tablespoons jarred minced garlic
2 tablespoons minced shallots
1/3 cup fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Garnish: lemon zest

Season shrimp with salt and pepper. Melt butter with 2 Tbsp. olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat; add shrimp, thyme, and next 2 ingredients, and sauté 2 to 3 minutes or just until shrimp turn pink. Add lemon juice and parsley.
