1-Step 1: Heat and Sauté the Shrimp Begin by heating 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the 1 pound of uncooked, peeled, and deveined shrimp, and sauté them until they turn pink and are cooked through, which takes about 2-3 minutes per side. Once done, remove the shrimp and set them aside to keep their tender texture.

2-Step 2: Create the Sauce Reduce the heat to low and add 6 tablespoons of unsalted butter to the same skillet. Stir in 4 teaspoons of minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until it becomes fragrant. Pour in 1 ¼ cups of white cooking wine and the juice from half a lemon, then stir and cook until the liquid reduces by half, concentrating those bright flavors.

3-Step 3: Combine and Finish Stir in 1 teaspoon of Italian seasoning to add a hint of herbs. Return the cooked shrimp to the skillet and toss everything together to coat evenly, cooking for another one to two minutes. Finally, remove from heat and garnish with grated Parmesan cheese, with optional parsley for a fresh touch.
