Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 large shallot, minced
- 3 cloves garlic, peeled and chopped
- 1/2 large lemon, sliced crosswise into five 1/4-inch-thick rounds
- 1 pound shell-on, deveined large shrimp
- 1 teaspoon sweet paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon ground dried thyme (see Cook’s Note)
- 1/2 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature and cut into small cubes
- Crusty bread, for dipping
Instructions
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil, shallot and garlic. Cook, stirring often with a wooden spoon, until the shallots are soft and fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add the lemon slices and cook until they begin to brown, about 1 minute longer, then stir in the shrimp, paprika, thyme, black pepper and salt. Add the Worcestershire sauce and 3 tablespoons water and bring the liquid to a simmer.
- Cook, stirring often, until the shrimp are beginning to turn pink, about 2 minutes. Add the butter cubes and swirl the pan to combine. Allow the sauce to simmer until the shrimp are pink and just opaque all the way through, another 3 to 4 minutes. Serve with lots of napkins and some crusty bread for sopping up the sauce.

Reviews
I’m a good cook & the general consensus was to nix this recipe. IDK…too dry & bland. Good thing I added some red pepper flakes. And it didn’t even make our house smell good..kinda stinky weird. I’m a huge fan of FN recipes, I hate to say it, I’m not normally a negative Nancy, but I removed it from my favs.
This dish is so delicious! I cooked for seven people on our vacation and everyone loved it! It has the best flavors & I will definitely do it again.
We have this regularly! Easy and good
Not very good. Disappointing. Only positive thing I can say is that it’s is simple to make. Far better shrimp recipes to make. Don’t waste your shrimp!
Wow! Like a gourmet meal at home! Paired it with dirty rice for a meal!
It’s my favorite recipe, I’ve been making it since I seen her make it
Yummy!!
TOTALLY YUMMY! For those who like it hot, just need to add some hot sauce to spice this up.
Great job!!!
Enjoyed it, wife and I shared with a cold beer, very good.
