1. Thaw the shrimp if frozen by placing them in a colander and running cold water over them for five minutes. Make sure to toss the colander so all the shrimp are exposed. The shrimp is fully thawed when they’re soft, somewhat translucent, and bendable.
2. Put a pan over medium-high heat and melt the butter. Make sure to tilt the pan as the butter melts so the oil coats the entire surface.
3. Add the shrimp and generously sprinkle the black pepper, chili spice, and salt when the butter is completely melted.
4. Stir the shrimp occasionally as you cook until the color turns bright red. You should notice this change in about four to five minutes, depending on the size. You’ll also see the shrimp curve to form a C-shape.
5. Once all the shrimp are entirely done, pour in a serving dish and use as desired in your pasta recipe.
