Please check out my tips below before you begin :)

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

2. Combine all ingredients EXCEPT shrimp in a medium saucepan and bring to a simmer. Remove from heat. Taste mixture and add a little salt if needed.

3. Place shrimp in a 9x13-inch baking dish.

4. Pour delicious mixture over shrimp.

5. Bake 15-20 minutes, stirring once (or more).

6. My friend devoured half the dish without anything on the side, but I eventually combined this with a little brown rice and it was incredible!

Tips!

• The lemons are ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS and I ate them all. Slice them as thinly as you can and they will melt in your mouth later.

• Use a Pyrex dish if you can, proudly support Made in USA!

• Best to use UNSALTED butter if you can.

• On shrimp, try to avoid anything that is farm raised. Buy as local as possible.

• Don't forget to de-vein your shrimp! There are tons of videos on how to do this on YouTube.

• Enjoy!
