Instructions
  1. 1

    Season the shrimp

    Pat 1 lb peeled, deveined extra-large shrimp dry. Toss in a bowl with salt, pepper, red pepper flakes, and onion powder until every piece is coated. Dry shrimp sear instead of steam, so don't skip the paper towel.

  1. 2

    Sear and pull the shrimp

    Heat 2 tbsp of the butter in a large skillet over medium. Mince 3 cloves garlic, add it, and cook 30 seconds until fragrant. Add the shrimp and cook 1-2 minutes per side, just until pink and opaque. Don't crowd the pan. Move the shrimp to a bowl right away so it doesn't overcook while the vegetables go.

  2. 3

    Cook mushrooms, then asparagus

    Add the last 1 tbsp butter to the same skillet, then 2 cups sliced mushrooms. Cook 5 minutes so they release their water and it evaporates. Trim the woody ends off 1 lb asparagus, cut into 2-inch pieces, add to the pan, and cook a few minutes more until crisp-tender and still bright green.

  3. 4

    Bring it together

    Return the shrimp to the skillet and toss just long enough to warm through, a matter of seconds. Chop 1 tbsp parsley, scatter it over, and serve immediately.
