Step-by-Step Instructions
- Start by rinsing the large fresh shrimp under cold water to ensure they are clean. Once rinsed, pat them dry thoroughly with paper towels, which is crucial for achieving a nice sear. Set the shrimp aside while you prepare the flavorful sauce.
- In a large skillet, melt 4 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Allow it to foam slightly but be careful not to let it brown.
- Add the minced garlic and chopped onion to the skillet with the melted butter. Sauté these for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently, until you notice the onion becoming translucent and fragrant.
- Stir in Worcestershire sauce, fresh lemon juice, hot sauce, paprika, cayenne pepper, black pepper, and salt into the skillet. Let this mixture simmer for 2-3 minutes.
- Add the prepared shrimp to the skillet, ensuring they are thoroughly coated in the saucy mixture. Cook the shrimp for about 5-7 minutes, stirring gently until they turn pink and opaque.
- Remove the skillet from heat and transfer the shrimp to a serving dish. Garnish generously with freshly chopped parsley and serve immediately.

Notes
For best results, reheat in a skillet over medium heat, adding a splash of water or broth to keep the shrimp moist. Enjoy with fresh bread or over rice.
