Start by using a pair of scissors to trim the tendrils off the shrimp. Then, give them a good rinse and make sure to drain them well.
Grab a skillet and place it over low heat. Add some butter and oil, allowing them to melt together.
Once the butter starts to melt, it's time to add the garlic. Stir it frequently for about 30 to 40 seconds, until it becomes lightly browned and fills the kitchen with its wonderful aroma.
Now, let's turn up the heat to high. Add the shrimp to the skillet and give them a good stir. Cook them for about 1 minute, until they start to change color.
As the shrimp are transforming, let's add a splash of 7-up to the skillet. This will add a delightful twist to the flavors. Don't forget to sprinkle in some chili pepper flakes for a little kick! Season with salt and pepper according to your taste preferences.
Keep cooking everything together for about 2 to 3 minutes, until the shrimp turn a lovely pink color and most of the liquid is absorbed.
