Course Dinner, Lunch

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb. uncooked extra-large shrimp — peeled
  • kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 1/4 tsp. red pepper flakes
  • 1 tsp. onion powder
  • 3 Tbsp. grass-fed ghee butter or extra virgin olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic — minced
  • 2 cups mushrooms — sliced
  • 1 bunch of asparagus — ends trimmed and cut in half
  • 1 Tbsp. fresh parsley — chopped optional

Instructions
 

  • In a bowl, add the shrimp, salt, pepper, red pepper flakes, and onion powder. Mix everything well.
  • In a cast iron skillet, add 2 tablespoons of olive oil or grass-fed ghee butter over medium heat.
  • Add the garlic, and sauté for 30 seconds. Add the shrimp, and sauté for about 4 minutes or until the shrimp are cooked through. Be careful not to overcook them because they will have a rubbery texture. Set aside.
  • In the same skillet, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and the mushrooms. Sauté for 5 minutes. Then, add the asparagus, and cook until it’s tender. Stir occasionally.
  • Return the shrimp to the skillet, and mix everything well to combine.
  • Garnish with fresh parsley. Enjoy!
