Note
One spelling does double duty because the verb is regular: adding -d to sizzle gives both the past and the participle (the oil sizzled; the oil had sizzled). Most uses are intransitive, whether the sound itself or the figurative sense of being exciting, so the participle usually pairs with have. Only the informal cooking sense takes an object, which is what allows a passive like the shrimp were sizzled in butter.
