We have always loved shrimp around here and this garlic butter shrimp cooked in white wine is no exception. The rich combination of flavours is absolutely delicious!
Garlic butter shrimp is one of those meals that my boys cannot get enough of. While this recipe will generously serve four people that depends on if those people are growing boys. My boys could easily eat this all themselves.
I must say that this is probably the easiest shrimp recipe that you will make. There are not any hard to find ingredients or steps involved. Just simple, real food.
Be sure to check out some of our other shrimp and wine inspired recipes like this Mushroom White Wine Sauce, Shrimp Skewers or Spicy Mango Lollipop Shrimp (yes, they are as good as they sound).
We paired our shrimp with this Gewurts from one of my favorite local wineries, See Ya Later Ranch. But you can use any white wine of your choosing, we actually used a cooking wine for this recipe. Tip: save your favorite wine for drinking with this recipe, not cooking in it *wink*.
