  • For shrimp, heat the oil and ghee in a saucepan. Add garlic and sauté until fragrant.
  • Add white wine, red pepper flakes, salt, pepper, lemon juice, and parsley to the pan. Pour in the shrimp and cook for 2-4 minutes per side or until shrimp is white and pink in color. Remove shrimp and set aside.
  • Add sauce ingredients to pan and let cook on medium heat, stirring occasionally, for about 15 minutes.
