Steps:
- Heat the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp in a single layer and cook on both sides until opaque in the middle, about 3 minutes. Remove to a cutting board and cut in half. Set aside.
- Return the skillet to the stovetop (do not wash it) and add the garlic and onion. Stir and cook until the onion starts to turn translucent, 2 to 3 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium low. Add the rice to the skillet and cook, stirring, for a couple of minutes, taking care not to burn it. Pour in the wine and stir. Once the wine is absorbed, begin adding the broth 1/2 to 1 cup at a time, allowing the rice to cook and absorb the liquid each time. Stir occasionally as you go and add the salt and pepper during one of the broth additions. After 4 cups of broth have been absorbed, taste the rice. It should have a slight bite, but if it seems undercooked, add additional broth for the rice to absorb and cook until the risotto is to your liking.
- Add both the lemon zest and juice to the risotto towards the end of cooking. Stir in the heavy cream, shrimp and basil, then serve immediately with extra lemon zest and Parmesan cheese on top.

Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: This will make a big difference in the flavor of your dish. Try to use wild-caught shrimp if possible, as they have a more intense flavor than farm-raised shrimp.
- Don't overcook the shrimp: Shrimp cook very quickly, so it's important to keep an eye on them and remove them from the heat as soon as they're cooked through. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and rubbery.
- Make sure the mayonnaise is well-seasoned: The mayonnaise is a key component of this dish, so it's important to make sure it's flavorful. Use a good-quality mayonnaise and add some fresh herbs, lemon juice, and salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve the shrimp with a variety of dipping sauces: This will allow your guests to customize their meal to their own preferences. Some good options include tartar sauce, cocktail sauce, and remoulade.
Conclusion:
Shrimp with Lemon Basil Mayonnaise is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that's perfect for any occasion. With its bright flavors and creamy texture, this dish is sure to be a hit with your friends and family. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give this recipe a try!
