Author Notes

A delectably delicious way to cook Shrimp, butterflied and quickly sautéed on high heat with a tangy Garlic Butter Sauce. The shape of the butterflied Shrimp makes for saucy crevices, even cooking, and a better mouthfeel. One of my favorite ten minute lunch or dinner recipes; perfection with a warm Baguette and some Greens.
