Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Shrimp

    Rinse the Gulf shrimp under cold water and pat dry with a paper towel. Ensure they are peeled and deveined.

  2. 2

    Mix the Marinade

    In a bowl, combine the minced garlic, lemon juice, chopped parsley, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Mix well to create a marinade.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Marinate the Shrimp

    Add the cleaned shrimp to the marinade and toss to coat evenly. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.

    Heat the Pan

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.

  3. 5

    Cook the Shrimp

    Add the marinated shrimp to the hot skillet in a single layer. Cook for 2-3 minutes on one side until pink and slightly charred.

  4. 6

    Flip and Finish

    Flip the shrimp and cook for another 2-3 minutes on the other side until fully cooked and opaque. Remove from heat.

Serving

  1. 7

    Plate the Dish

    Transfer the shrimp to a serving platter. Drizzle with any remaining marinade from the skillet.

  2. 8

    Garnish

    Serve with lemon wedges and sprinkle extra chopped parsley on top for garnish.
