In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil and 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter over medium-high heat.

Carefully place 1 pound of large or jumbo shrimp into the skillet, seasoning with about ¼ teaspoon of salt, and sauté for 2-3 minutes.

Using tongs, gently flip each shrimp and continue cooking for another 2 minutes until fully opaque and tender.

Stir in 6 cloves of minced garlic and ½ teaspoon of red pepper flakes, cooking for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

Remove from heat, then stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter, 3 tablespoons of freshly squeezed lemon juice, and ¼ cup of chopped fresh parsley.

Transfer the Garlic Butter Shrimp to a serving dish and enjoy immediately.
