Sunday we had:

Shrimp with Artichokes and Mushrooms

1/2 cup white wine
3 T butter
2 T finely chopped fresh parsley

Pat shrimp dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper. Combine shrimp, 1 T oil, garlic and pepper flakes in zip loc bag and refrigerate for 15 minutes

Heat 1 T oil in a large nonstick skillet over med-high heat until shimmering. Cook mushrooms until browned, 6 yo 8 minutes. Add artichokes and cook until lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Transfer vegetables to med bowl and tent with foil.

Heat 1 T oil in skillet over med-high heat until just smoking. Add half shrimp and cook without moving until spotty brown on first side, about 1 minutes, transfer to bowl with vegetables. Repeat with remaining oil and remaining shrimp. Add wine to now-empty skillet and simmer until reduced to 1/3 cup, 1 to 2 minutes. whisk in butter until smooth.
