Ingredients

Method

Directions

1

Prepare the Shrimp

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

2

Add the shrimp to the skillet. Season with salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Cook for about 3-4 minutes, or until the shrimp are pink and cooked through. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.

3

Cook the Vegetables

In the same skillet, add the julienned bell pepper, carrot, and zucchini. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender yet crisp.

4

Make the Sauce

Lower the heat and pour in the heavy cream. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and lemon juice. Cook for about 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until the sauce thickens slightly.

5

Return the cooked shrimp to the skillet and mix well to coat in the sauce. Adjust seasoning with salt and black pepper as needed.

6

Serve

Serve the Czarina hot over pasta or rice, garnished with additional Parmesan cheese if desired.
