Instructions

Heat the olive oil and 1/2 Tbsp of the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the asparagus and season with salt and pepper to taste. Saute the asparagus for about 3-4 minutes, or until it’s tender but still crisp. Then transfer to a plate and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1.5 Tbsp of butter, the shrimp and salt and pepper to taste. Saute on one side undisturbed for 1-2 minutes then add the minced garlic, Italian seasoning and onion powder. Flip the shrimp and cook on the opposite side for another 1-2 minutes.
Push the cooked shrimp to one side to make room for the asparagus then add the asparagus back in. Squeeze the lemon over everything and remove from heat.
Garnish with red pepper flakes, fresh cilantro and lemon wedges, if desired. Serve with noodles, rice, potatoes or as is and enjoy!

Notes
