Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup butter
• 1 teaspoon fresh thyme
• zest of one orange
• 2 teaspoons minced garlic
• 2 lbs. raw shrimp
• 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
• salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

1. Heat the butter in a medium skillet over low heat. When the butter is melted, add the thyme leaves. Stir and simmer, keeping the heat low (it burns easily), for 5 minutes or until the butter reaches a golden brown color.
2. Remove from heat and stir in the zest. Pour the butter into a small bowl and let it rest for a few minutes.
3. In the same skillet, with a light coating of the butter remaining, add the garlic and saute for 1 minute.
4. Add the raw shrimp and the chili powder; shake or toss in the pan for 3-5 minutes or until the shrimp is no longer translucent.
5. Serve with the butter and pasta, grains, rice, or a salad.

NOTES:

• I used salted butter – it was very salty but I loved it. If you want to control the saltiness, choose unsalted butter and add salt to taste.
