YIELD: 3 servings, each with 3 grams of carbohydrates, a trace of fiber, and 31 grams of protein.
INGREDIENTS:
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, crushed
- 1 pound raw shrimp in the shell
- 1/4 cup dry white wine
- 1/4 cup minced fresh parsley
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Melt the butter with the olive oil in a heavy skillet over medium-low heat. Add the garlic, and stir it around.
- Add the shrimp to the skillet. If they’re room temperature, they’ll take 2 to 3 minutes per side; frozen shrimp will take 4 to 5 minutes per side. Be careful not to overcook them.
- Add the wine, and simmer for another 1 to 2 minutes. Serve garnished with the parsley, and put out plenty of napkins!
NOTE:
- Feel free to increase this recipe to however much your skillet can hold. This makes a great fast-and-easy company dinner; just add a salad and some crusty bread for the carb-eaters, and call it a party.
