Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Shrimp

    In a mixing bowl, combine the shrimp with olive oil. Toss to coat the shrimp evenly.

  2. 2

    Make the Spice Rub

    In a separate bowl, mix together paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper.

  3. 3

    Season the Shrimp

    Sprinkle the spice mixture over the shrimp. Toss well until all the shrimp are coated with the spices.

  4. 4

    Heat the Pan

    Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add a small amount of olive oil if needed.

  5. 5

    Cook the Shrimp

    Add the seasoned shrimp to the skillet in a single layer. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until shrimp are opaque and slightly charred.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Remove shrimp from the skillet. Serve hot with lemon wedges on the side.
