Ingredients

  

  • 1.5 lbs shrimp peeled and de-veined
  • 2 bell peppers sliced into strips
  • 2 cups broccoli separated into florets
  • 1 lemon zest and juice
  • 6 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 bunch parsley minced
  • 4 tbsp butter
  • 2 tsp Italian herbs
  • ½ tsp red pepper flakes
  • ¼ cup white wine
  • Cooked rice optional

Instructions

 

  • First, steam the broccoli with 2 cloves minced garlic until tender, about 5 minutes.
  • In a skillet, saute bell peppers with olive oil and 2 cloves minced garlic. Set aside when starting to become crispy.
  • In the same skillet, saute shrimp with some olive oil, the remaining garlic, red pepper flakes, and Italian herbs until pink and no longer translucent.
  • Remove shrimp from the skillet. Add white wine to deglaze the skillet and let reduce by about half before adding the butter and lemon zest/juice. Add the shrimp, broccoli, and bell peppers back into the skillet and toss to combine with the sauce.
  • Top with parsley and freshly cracked pepper before serving with optional rice.
