Receta Garlic & Lemon Butter Shrimp
This recipe for pan searing shrimp is one of my favorites. I adapted it from a Cooks Illustrated recipe. It is full of flavor and the shrimp will come out brown and slightly caramelized if you pan sear them as described. We tried two different recipes the same night and compared side by side. This was the consensus, but not unanimous, favorite. The other is listed as Ginger-Hoisin Glazed Shrimp
