Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup turkey broth
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  • Melt butter in a medium skillet over medium heat.
  • Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  • Pour in turkey broth, lemon juice, salt, and pepper, and bring to a simmer.
  • Add shrimp to the skillet and poach for 3-4 minutes, turning once, until pink and cooked through.
  • Remove from heat, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve.

Notes

  • Serve with crusty bread to soak up the buttery sauce or toss with pasta for a heartier meal.
  • Be careful not to overcook the shrimp; they’ll become rubbery if left in the skillet too long.
  • Turkey broth can be substituted with chicken or vegetable broth.
