10 Minute Garlic Butter Baked Shrimp is an easy recipe for perfectly cooked, garlicky, buttery shrimp that is baked on a sheet pan in just 10 minutes!
I don’t eat nearly as much seafood as I would like to, but I have a feeling that is all about to change. You see, my kids are finally coming around to the realization that seafood is ah-freakin-mazing. This is a 100% bonafide mom win and I am so excited to start adding seafood to our weekly menu plan.
I myself have always loved seafood, in general. My family, on the other hand, has taken some persuasion to get on board with incorporating seafood into our daily meals.
