1
Clean the Shrimp
Rinse the shrimp under cold water and remove the shells and tails if not already done. Pat them dry with a paper towel.
2
Prepare Marinade
In a bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
3
Marinate Shrimp
Add the cleaned shrimp to the marinade. Toss to ensure all shrimp are coated. Let them marinate for 15-30 minutes.

4
Frying Method
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add a tablespoon of olive oil. Once hot, add the marinated shrimp in a single layer. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until they turn pink and opaque.
5
Grilling Method
Preheat your grill to medium-high. Thread the marinated shrimp onto skewers. Grill for about 2-3 minutes on each side, until they are pink and cooked through.

6
Garnish
Remove the shrimp from the skillet or grill and transfer them to a serving platter. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
