🛒 Ingredients

For the Shrimp

• 1 ½ lbs large shrimp, peeled & deveined (tails on or off)
  

• 1 pouch (8.8 oz) Le Sauce & Co. Savory Garlic & Butter Gourmet Sauce
  

• 1 tbsp olive oil
  

• ½ tsp paprika
  

• ¼ tsp crushed red pepper (optional)
  

• Zest of 1 lemon
  

• 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  

• 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
  

• Salt & black pepper to taste
  
  

For the Lemon Parmesan Rice

• 1 ½ cups long grain white rice (uncooked)
  

• 3 cups chicken broth
  

• 2 tbsp butter
  

• Zest of 1 lemon
  

• 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  

• ¾ cup freshly grated Parmesan
  

• 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
  

• Salt & pepper to taste
  

👩🍳 Instructions

1️⃣ Cook the Rice

1. In a saucepan, bring chicken broth to a boil.
   
   

2. Add rice, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer 15–18 minutes until tender.
   
   

3. Remove from heat. Stir in butter, lemon zest, lemon juice, Parmesan, parsley, salt, and pepper.
   
   

4. Fluff and cover to keep warm.
   
   

It should be creamy, bright, and slightly glossy.

2️⃣ Cook the Shrimp

1. Pat shrimp dry and season with paprika, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper.
   
   

2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high.
   
   

3. Add shrimp in a single layer. Cook 1–2 minutes per side (just until pink).
   
   

4. Reduce heat to medium and pour in the entire pouch of Savory Garlic & Butter Gourmet Sauce.
   
   

5. Simmer 2–3 minutes until shrimp are fully coated and sauce slightly thickens.
   
   

6. Finish with lemon zest, lemon juice, and fresh parsley.
   
   

The sauce should be silky and glossy — not overcooked.
