5 tablespoons butter
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 teaspoons fresh thyme, chopped, or 3/4 teaspoon dried thyme leaves

In a skillet, melt butter over medium high heat with garlic and thyme. Add shrimp. Cook, stirring for 5 minutes or until heated through.

You can substitute 3 cups frozen sliced strawberries, thawed, for the fresh strawberries.
3/4 teaspoon dried thyme leaves may be substituted for 2 teaspoons fresh thyme.
