Shrimp - Paleo On a Budget

Ingredients:
• 1/2 lb of medium shrimp, raw

• 1 shallot, finely diced

• 1 clove of garlic, finely chopped

• 1 lemon

• Butter or Olive Oil or Ghee
• Parsley {fresh is better but dried totally works}

• Salt + Pepper

How To:

• Peel and de- vein your shrimp. You can buy that already done for you, but you’ll spend extra money. I generally get it de-veined and peel it myself.
• In a pan get some butter melting {or Ghee} {or you could use olive oil if you don’t want to do butter…which is what I did!} {I don’t recommend coconut oil here because it’ll over power your dish}. Put in your shallots and garlic, let that cook for just a few minutes, you don’t want a ton of color on it so just go slow.
• Toss in your shrimp and let it start to cook, add in the juice of one whole lemon and sprinkle of parsley a dash of salt and some pepper.
• **** When your shrimp are literally a few seconds from being done {Done = pretty in pink}, turn off your stove and move pan to a different burner. The heat from your pan will finish cooking them all the way through. That way you don’t have tough over done shrimp!
• After it’s on your plate I like to drizzle with some oil and a few more cracks of pepper.

Enjoy!
{The cooking times {from adding your butter in the pan} is roughly 5 minutes or less depending on how many shrimp you have to cook}
