A delightful shrimp recipe with a rich garlic butter sauce, perfect as an appetizer or main dish.
Heat the butter in a skillet over medium heat until melted.
Using unsalted butter allows you to control the saltiness of the dish.
Add the minced garlic and chopped chives to the skillet and sauté until fragrant.
Keep stirring to prevent the garlic from burning, which can make it bitter.
Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook until they turn pink and opaque.
Avoid overcooking the shrimp as they can become rubbery.
Pour in the sherry and sprinkle the salt, stirring to combine.
Let the alcohol in the sherry cook off slightly to mellow the flavor.
Sprinkle the parmesan cheese over the shrimp and serve immediately.
Serve with crusty bread to enjoy the flavorful sauce.
