• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 lemon, juiced
• Salt and pepper to taste

7. Pour the remaining garlic butter sauce over the shrimp and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley.
8. Arrange the shrimp in a circular pattern for a beautiful presentation and serve immediately.

Helpful Tips

• To make this dish even more delectable, add a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese before serving.
• If you don’t have a sous vide machine, gently simmer the shrimp in the garlic butter sauce on low heat until cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
• For a zesty twist, add a teaspoon of lemon zest to the garlic butter mixture.

Leftover garlic butter sous vide shrimp can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop or in the microwave until warmed through.
