Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Shrimp

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the thinly sliced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute, being careful not to burn it.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Shrimp

    Add the shrimp to the skillet and season with smoked paprika, red pepper flakes, and salt. Cook for 2-3 minutes, turning occasionally, until the shrimp are pink and opaque.

  3. 3

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove from heat and sprinkle with chopped parsley. Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side.
