Start by patting the extra large shrimp dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. This ensures the shrimp sear beautifully in the pan.

In the bowl with the shrimp, sprinkle the all-purpose flour, paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Toss the shrimp gently until they are evenly coated in the mixture.

Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the unsalted butter and olive oil. Allow the butter to melt completely, then add the minced garlic, stirring constantly for about 30 seconds.

Carefully place the seasoned shrimp in an even layer in the skillet. Cook for approximately 2 minutes until the shrimp turn pink on one side. Flip each shrimp and continue cooking for an additional 2 minutes or until just cooked through.

Once the shrimp are cooked, remove the skillet from heat. Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the shrimp and toss gently to combine.
