Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Shrimp

    In a medium bowl, combine the shrimp, olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. Toss until the shrimp are evenly coated.

  2. 2

    Let the Shrimp Marinate

    Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the shrimp marinate for at least 15 minutes to enhance the flavor.

  3. 3

    Cook the French Fries

    While the shrimp is marinating, preheat your oven according to the instructions on the French fries package. Spread the frozen fries on a baking sheet in a single layer and bake for the time specified on the package, usually about 20-25 minutes, or until golden and crispy.

  4. 4

    Cook the Shrimp

    In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the marinated shrimp. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are pink and opaque. This should take about 6-8 minutes total.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Once both the shrimp and fries are cooked, serve them on a plate. Garnish with fresh parsley for a touch of color and extra flavor.
