Gather all ingredients.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over high heat until smoking. Place shrimp in an even layer on the skillet and cook for 1 minute without stirring.
Season shrimp with salt; cook and stir until shrimp begin to turn pink, about 1 minute.
Add garlic and red pepper flakes; cook and stir for 1 minute.

Remove shrimp with a slotted spoon and transfer to a bowl; continue to cook butter sauce, adding water as needed to adjust thickness, about 2 minutes.
