Cooking Directions
- 1
Prepare the Shrimp
Start by rinsing the shrimp under cold water and patting them dry with paper towels.

Marinate the Shrimp
In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Add the shrimp to the bowl and toss to coat them evenly in the marinade. Let them marinate for 15-20 minutes.

Heat the Pan
While the shrimp are marinating, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Allow it to get hot for about 2-3 minutes.

Cook the Shrimp
Once the pan is hot, add the marinated shrimp in a single layer. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on one side until they turn pink and opaque. Flip the shrimp and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes on the other side.

Garnish and Serve
Remove the skillet from heat. Sprinkle the chopped fresh parsley over the shrimp. Serve immediately while hot, with lemon wedges on the side if desired.
