Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prep the Shrimp

    Rinse the shrimp under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. If using frozen shrimp, ensure they are completely thawed.

  2. 2

    Chop the Vegetables

    Slice the bell peppers and zucchini into thin strips. Dice the red onion and mince the garlic cloves.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Heat the Pan

    In a large skillet, heat 3 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat.

  2. 4

    Sauté the Vegetables

    Add the diced red onion and minced garlic to the skillet. Sauté for about 2-3 minutes until the onion becomes translucent.

  3. 5

    Add Bell Peppers and Zucchini

    Add the sliced bell peppers and zucchini to the skillet. Cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender.

  4. 6

    Cook the Shrimp

    Add the shrimp to the skillet. Sprinkle the paprika, salt, and black pepper over the shrimp and vegetables. Cook for about 4-5 minutes, or until the shrimp turn pink and opaque.

  5. 7

    Finish with Lemon Juice and Parsley

    Remove the skillet from heat and drizzle 2 tablespoons of lemon juice over the shrimp and vegetables. Toss to combine. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
