Garlic shrimp with summer squash


Ingredients: frozen shrimp (1/2 lb), squash (1 med, roughly chopped), garlic (2 tsp), chili flakes (1/8 tsp), butter (1 TB), extra virgin olive oil (1 TB), kosher salt & pepper

How:

1. Cook frozen raw shrimp by placing in a pot of boiling water until turn pink.  Add some chopped garlic (1 TB) for extra flavor.  Take shrimp out of the pot, reserving the cooking liquid.  *Note:  I always reserve the cooking liquid and use it as seafood stock for other dishes such as Korean style spicy soup as shown in Recipe 2!  😊

2.  In a preheated skillet, add oil and butter, garlic and chili flakes. Let oil and butter be infused with garlic and chili flakes.

3.  Add shrimp and squash in the skillet.  Cook until the squash is nicely browned and tender. 

4. Season to taste!!
