Directions
- Cook the Shrimp: Heat olive oil or butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the shrimp and sauté for 2–3 minutes per side until pink and cooked through. Remove shrimp from the pan and set aside.
- Make the Garlic Cream Sauce: In the same pan, add minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Stir in the heavy cream and dried Italian herbs. Simmer for 3–4 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
- Combine Shrimp and Sauce: Return the cooked shrimp to the skillet, season with salt and pepper, and simmer for 1 minute so the shrimp soak up the creamy sauce.
- Serve: Plate warm herbed rice and spoon the creamy garlic shrimp on top. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a burst of color and freshness.
