Seafood

Marinade

Garnish

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Seafood

    Rinse the shrimp, scallops, and calamari under cold water. Pat them dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.

  2. 2

    Make the Marinade

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create the marinade.

  3. 3

    Marinate the Seafood

    Place the seafood in a large zip-lock bag or a bowl. Pour the marinade over the seafood, ensuring all pieces are coated. Seal the bag or cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Cook the Shrimp

    Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are pink and opaque. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

  2. 5

    Cook the Scallops

    In the same skillet, add the scallops. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

  3. 6

    Cook the Calamari

    Add the calamari to the skillet and cook for 1-2 minutes until they are just opaque and tender. Be careful not to overcook them to avoid toughness.

Serving

  1. 7

    Plate the Seafood

    Arrange the cooked shrimp, scallops, and calamari on a serving platter.

  2. 8

    Garnish

    Sprinkle chopped parsley over the seafood and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
