Gather Ingredients: Collect your shrimp, minced garlic, lemon juice, butter, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Having everything at hand ensures a smooth cooking experience and helps you keep the rhythm going.

Heat Skillet: In a large skillet, over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter along with the olive oil. Allow them to blend together until bubbly and fragrant—this should take about 1 minute.

Sauté Garlic: Add the minced garlic to the skillet. Sauté for about 1 minute until it becomes aromatic and starts to turn golden, making sure not to let it burn.

Cook Shrimp: Gently place the shrimp into the skillet. Season with salt and pepper, cooking until they turn pink and opaque, which should take around 3-5 minutes. Flip the shrimp halfway through for even cooking.

Add Lemon Juice: Briefly remove the skillet from heat, and squeeze the lemon juice over the shrimp. Stir gently to combine, allowing the bright citrus flavor to infuse into the dish.

Melt Remaining Butter: Return the skillet to low heat and add the remaining tablespoon of butter, stirring until melted and well mixed with the sauce.

Serve & Garnish: Transfer your Lemon Garlic Shrimp to plates or serve directly from the skillet. Finish with a sprinkle of chopped parsley.
