1 Skillet Used to cook shrimp as well as make the sauce.

Ingredients

500 grams Shrimp
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon flour/cornstarch
2-3 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon minced garlic
⅓ cup dry white wine
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon pepper
½ teaspoon Italian Seasoning
⅓ cup Chicken stock
½ cup heavy cream
⅓ cup grated parmesan cheese
2-3 tablespoon Lemon juice

Instructions

If using frozen shrimp, thaw completely and drain any water really well. Pat dry with a kitchen towel.
Season shrimp with flour, salt, and pepper. Toss well to coat.
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet. Arrange half of the shrimp in a single layer in the skillet without crowding it. Cook on medium-high heat for 2 minutes. Flip and cook for another 1 minute. Remove from the pan. Add remaining oil to the skillet. Repeat the same for the rest of the shrimp.
Add butter to the skillet. Saute minced garlic for 30 seconds, until aromatic.
Add wine to the pan and let it cook for 1-2 minutes until it has reduced by less than half.
Reduce the flame and add chicken stock and heavy cream. Stir to mix.
Add shredded parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper as per taste. Mix and let it simmer for a minute.
Add cooked shrimp back to the pan. Pour over the sauce. Switch off the flame.
Serve over pasta or with crusty bread.
