Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prep the Ingredients

    Start by peeling and deveining the shrimp if not already done. Rinse the shrimp under cold water and pat dry with a paper towel. If using fresh green peas, shell them. If using frozen, measure out the required amount.

Cooking

  1. 2

    Cook the Aromatics

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Then add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.

  2. 3

    Add the Shrimp

    Increase the heat to medium-high and add the shrimp to the skillet. Season with salt and black pepper. Cook for about 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the shrimp turn pink and opaque.

  3. 4

    Incorporate the Peas

    Add the green peas to the skillet with the shrimp. If using frozen peas, you may need to cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until heated through. Stir in the lemon juice and mix well.

  4. 5

    Finish and Serve

    Remove the skillet from heat. Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving. Serve hot with rice or crusty bread.
