Garlic Butter Shrimps
Try this super easy, delicious Garlic Butter Shrimp Recipe. It has a secret ingredient that makes the shrimps sweeter and tastier. 
What is not to like with this Garlic Butter Shrimp recipe! It is so good and all done under 15 minutes. It goes nicely with toast or any plain bread like Baguet. You will definitely need it to scrape the last smears of the delicious sauce from your plate, believe me, you won’t want to put any of that goodness to waste!
The chopped parsley added a nice flavor to it, but you can skip it if you don’t have any. The secret ingredient though is the splash of 7-up or Sprite. It brings out and intensifies the natural sweetness of the shrimps. I only added a quarter of a cup but to those who like a sweeter sauce, you can add some more.
Of course, to my Filipino readers, you can also serve this with hot steamed rice!
