Honey Butter Old Bay Shrimp Recipe

Ingredients:

 

1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined

3 tablespoons unsalted butter

2 tablespoons honey

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon Old Bay seasoning

1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped

1 tablespoon olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste

Lemon wedges for garnish

Instructions:

 

1. Prepare the Shrimp:

 

Rinse the shrimp under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.

Season the shrimp lightly with salt, pepper, and half of the Old Bay seasoning. Toss gently to coat evenly.

2. Heat the Skillet:

 

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers but doesn’t smoke.

3. Cook the Shrimp:

Add the seasoned shrimp to the skillet in a single layer. Cook for 1-2 minutes per side until they turn pink and opaque. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set them aside.

4. Prepare the Honey Butter Sauce:

 

In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium-low. Add butter and let it melt.

Stir in the minced garlic and cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

Add the honey and the remaining Old Bay seasoning. Stir well until the sauce is smooth and heated through.

5. Combine Shrimp with Honey Butter Sauce:

 

Return the cooked shrimp to the skillet with the honey butter sauce. Toss gently to coat the shrimp evenly with the sauce.

Let the shrimp cook in the sauce for an additional 1-2 minutes to absorb the flavors.

6. Serve:

 

Remove the skillet from heat and transfer the Honey Butter Old Bay Shrimp to a serving plate.

Garnish with chopped parsley and serve hot with lemon wedges on the side for a burst of citrus flavor.
