1 pound (16/20) peeled and deveined shrimp
2 Tbsp chopped fresh garlic
1 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
½ tsp black pepper

Preparation:

Heat half of the canola oil in large nonstick sauté pan on medium high heat. In a large bowl, mix flour, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Toss shrimp in flour mixture and coat evenly.

Add to the same pan the garlic, wine, and lemon juice; stir and cook until hot.  It will start to boil in about 4-6 minutes. Turn off heat, stir in cold butter in small amounts until incorporated. Add shrimp back to pan with any drippings along with parsley and toss or stir until coated. Serve and eat.
