1
Clean the Shrimp
Rinse the shrimp under cold water and remove the shells and tails. Pat dry with paper towels.
2
Mince the Garlic
Peel and finely chop the garlic cloves.
3
Chop the Parsley
Wash and finely chop the parsley leaves.
4
Prepare the Lemon
Cut the lemon in half and juice it. Set aside the juice and the lemon halves.

5
Sauté the Garlic
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
6
Cook the Shrimp
Add the cleaned shrimp to the skillet. Sprinkle with salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using). Cook for 2-3 minutes until shrimp turns pink.
7
Add Lemon Juice
Pour the lemon juice over the shrimp and stir well to combine. If using white wine, add it now and let it simmer for another 2 minutes.
8
Finish with Parsley
Remove the skillet from heat, add chopped parsley, and stir to combine. Adjust seasoning if necessary.
