Preparation

  1. 1

    Prep the Ingredients

    Start by washing and slicing the bell peppers, onion, and tomatoes. Mince the garlic and set aside.

    Marinate the Shrimp

    In a bowl, combine the shrimp with lime juice, salt, black pepper, cumin, and paprika. Let it marinate for about 15 minutes.

    Add the sliced bell peppers to the skillet and sauté for another 5 minutes until they are tender.

    Cook the Shrimp

    Add the marinated shrimp and minced garlic to the skillet. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the shrimp are pink and cooked through.

  4. 6

    Add Tomatoes
