Applebee’s Parmesan Shrimp Recipe
The key to nailing this dish is getting a good sear on the steak while keeping the shrimp juicy. A cast iron skillet works wonders here! You’ll start by grilling or pan-searing the steak to your desired doneness. Medium-rare is my go-to for maximum flavor and juiciness. While the steak rests, quickly sauté the shrimp in butter and garlic until pink and curled. Simmer heavy cream, then whisk in plenty of grated Parmesan cheese until smooth and velvety.
