Lots of saucy garlic butter will make you want to sop up every dribble of this dish with crusty bread. Quick tip: Call ahead to your grocer to order shrimp that's already peeled and deveined. If you decide to peel and devein it yourself, purchase 1 2/3 pounds shrimp in the shells.

* 4 garlic cloves, chopped
* 1 1/4 pounds peeled and deveined, large fresh shrimp
* 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (about 1 lemon)
* 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
* 1/2 teaspoon salt
* 1/4 teaspoon pepper
* Garnish: fresh chives
== Directions ==
# Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat; add garlic, and cook 1 minute or until browned.
# Add shrimp, and cook, stirring often, 4 minutes or until shrimp turn pink.

# Serve over rice or with crusty bread.
# Garnish, if desired.
