2 Tb butter

1 Tb lemon juice

1 clove garlic, pressed

1 tsp fresh chopped parsley

Melt butter in a skillet over medium high heat. When it stops bubbling, add pressed garlic. Stir quickly to keep it from burning, add the lemon juice and reduce for a minute or so. Add shrimp, parsley, salt and pepper. Continue tossing till shrimp has become pink, 2-3 minutes. Do not overcook. Serve immediately.
