Anleitungen
- Season the shrimp on both sides with Kosher salt, freshly ground black pepper, and 1 teaspoon of Old Bay Seasoning.
- Warm the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp, cooking them for 2 to 3 minutes on each side until they are opaque and lightly browned. Remove the shrimp and set them aside on a plate.
- To the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute, until fragrant.
- Deglaze the pan by pouring in the white wine and lemon juice, scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the pan with a wooden or silicone spoon. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and let cook for 5 minutes.
- Stir in the unsalted butter and the remaining 1 teaspoon of Old Bay Seasoning, allowing the butter to melt completely and blend into the sauce.
- Return the shrimp to the skillet, stirring gently to coat them in the sauce. Taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt and black pepper, if needed.
- Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and grated Parmesan cheese. Serve immediately.
