Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Shrimp

    In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Add the peeled and deveined shrimp to the bowl and toss until the shrimp are well coated with the marinade. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Cooking

  1. 2

    Cook the Shrimp

    Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated shrimp to the skillet in a single layer. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until the shrimp turn pink and are cooked through. Be careful not to overcrowd the skillet; you may need to cook them in batches.

  2. 3

    Garnish and Serve

    Once cooked, remove the shrimp from the skillet and transfer them to a serving platter. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve immediately with lemon wedges if desired.
