Directions
Heat the oil and butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and sauté for 30 seconds. Add the shrimp and sauté for 3 to 4 minutes or until the shrimp turn pink.
Add the honey and tequila and cook for 1 to 2 minutes. Serve immediately.
Notes: Shrimp makes the perfect entree for after-work dinner parties: It must be cooked fast or it toughens up and loses its juiciness. If you're a garlic fan, you might consider adding even more of the fragrant bulb. The savory garlic here keeps the honey from making the dish too sweet, and the tequila adds a welcome punch. Add a bit of crushed red pepper for a spicy-sweet sensation.
