Makes 6 Servings

Ingredients:

  • 1/4 cup ghee or grass-fed butter
  • 4-6 cloves, garlic minced
  • 1/3 cup bone broth
  • Large pinch red pepper flakes or to taste
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper

Instructions:

In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 30-60 seconds. Add broth, red pepper flakes and black pepper and bring to a simmer. Allow broth to reduce about half, cooking for 2 minutes or so.

Add shrimp and sauté until opaque and pink, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in lemon juice and parsley. Toss with prepared Heart of Palm noodles (see below).

For the Heart of Palm Noodles: Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Sauté the noodles, stirring gently for even cooking, about 2 minutes for “al dente”. Toss with the shrimp scampi and serve immediately – enjoy!
