Directions
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat and melt the butter until it starts to foam.
- Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute, or until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
- Add the shrimp in a single layer, cooking 2–3 minutes per side until they turn pink and opaque.
- Pour in the Hennessy, honey, and fresh lemon juice, stirring to coat the shrimp evenly.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste and cook for another 1–2 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly and becomes glossy.
- Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle the chopped parsley over the shrimp for a fresh, vibrant touch.
- Serve immediately with steamed rice, pasta, or a fresh green salad, spooning extra sauce over the top.
