1
Marinate the Shrimp
In a bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a marinade.
2
Add Shrimp to Marinade
Add the peeled and deveined shrimp to the marinade, ensuring all the shrimp are well-coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

3
Heat the Pan
In a large skillet, heat over medium-high heat. Allow the pan to get hot before adding the shrimp.
4
Cook the Shrimp
Once the pan is hot, add the marinated shrimp to the skillet in a single layer. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until the shrimp turn pink and opaque.
5
Garnish and Serve
Remove the skillet from heat. Transfer the cooked shrimp to a serving platter and sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley. Serve immediately.
