Ingredients

1 pound Jumbo White Shrimp
1 tbsp flour
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon course Hawaiian sea salt regular sea salt is ok
1/4 teaspoon pepper
4 tablespoons salted butter
10 cloves fresh garlic minced
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

Instructions

In a medium sized bowl combine the shrimp, flour, paprika, salt and pepper.
In a medium skillet on medium heat, add butter, and minced raw garlic
Add in the olive oil and shrimp and cook until the shrimp is pink about 3-5 minutes.
Serve the shrimp with rice and to get the full Hawaii effect, use the leftover garlic sauce to serve on top of the rice. :)

Notes

Although I thought the sauce was perfect, my hubby thought it should be a little thicker. If you want it thicker, before adding shrimp, whisk in a tablespoon of flour.
