A flavorful shrimp dish with a delightful garlic and herb sauce, perfect for a quick and satisfying meal.
Heat the butter in a large skillet over medium heat until melted.
Using unsalted butter allows you to control the salt level in the dish.
Add the mushrooms, garlic, and shallot to the skillet and cook until softened.
Stir frequently to prevent the garlic from burning, which can make it bitter.
Stir in the shrimp, basil, and white pepper, cooking until the shrimp turn pink and opaque.
Cook the shrimp in a single layer for even cooking.
Pour in the white wine and let it simmer for a few minutes to reduce slightly.
Simmering the wine enhances its flavor and removes the alcohol.
Serve the shrimp mixture over cooked rice or with a side of crusty bread.
Garnish with additional fresh basil for a pop of color and flavor.
