Shrimp Ingredients:

2 pounds shrimp, cleaned, deveined, tails removed

juice from 1 lemon and zest from one half of the lemon

kernels from 5 cobs, roasted in oven (directions above)

Heat 1 Tablespoon butter and oil in a skillet and melt on medium heat. Add the garlic until fragrant. Add the shrimp ad generously salt and pepper them.

Bring to a boil and lower to simmer a few minutes. Add the corn in. Taste for seasoning and add salt/pepper to taste. Return shrimp to pan until heated through.
