Step 1

Start off by thawing out your shrimp and removing the shells. I like to leave the tail on but you can remove that as well if you want.

Step 2

Now place the raw shrimp in a large bowl and mix it with olive oil, freshly pressed garlic, salt, onion powder, oregano, black pepper, and cayenne (optional).

Step 3

Then melt butter in a skillet over medium heat and cook the shrimp a few minutes on both sides until they are pink and opaque.

Step 4

Serve warm with rice or make into it an Alfredo shrimp recipe with pasta and Alfredo sauce.
