Cilantro Shrimp Verde Skillet Recipe

1/4 cup butter
2 Tbsp olive oil
1 to 2 lbs fresh, cleaned shrimp
2 cups homemade salsa verde (or good jarred)
1 cup fresh cilantro, chopped fine
fresh lemon juice
brown rice optional

Get out a large cast iron (or other heavy) skillet and put over medium heat.

Add butter and olive oil to the skillet - when hot, add the shrimp.

Cook just 1 minute, stirring, then add the salsa verde and stir to combine.

Turn heat to low and cook just until the shrimp firms and turns pink, then remove from heat.

Stir in the cilantro and serve immediately, squeezing fresh lemon juice over before serving.  May be spooned over brown rice for a complete meal.
