Cook for another minute and remove from pan. 2: Melt another 2 tbsp of butter in the same pan. Add in your rice and stir until it becomes translucent. Next, add juice from 1 lemon and 1 cup stock. Stir until absorbed. 3: Once stock has mostly absorbed, add in another cup. Stir until mostly absorbed. Repeat this until the stock is all used. 4: Cook your shrimp during this time, being careful not to burn your rice. 5: Melt 2 tbsp butter in a pan. Sprinkle with salt.
