Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Preparing the Marinade

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, paprika, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. Mix well to create a marinade.

  2. 2

    Marinating the Shrimp

    Add the shrimp to the marinade, ensuring they are all well coated. Cover and let them marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

  3. 3

    Grilling or Frying

    For grilling, preheat a grill to medium-high heat. Thread the marinated shrimp onto skewers and grill for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are pink and opaque. For frying, heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add a little olive oil. Fry the shrimp for about 2-3 minutes on each side until cooked through.

  4. 4

    Serving

    Remove the shrimp from the grill or skillet and garnish with chopped parsley. Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side.
