1
Prepare the Shrimp
In a bowl, combine the shrimp with half the lemon juice, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Allow to marinate for at least 15 minutes.
2
Prepare the Swai
Rinse the swai fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Season both sides with the remaining lemon juice, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.

3
Cook the French Fries
Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F). Spread the frozen French fries on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden and crispy, flipping halfway through.
4
Sauté the Swai
In a skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Once hot, add the swai fillets and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Remove from skillet and keep warm.
5
Cook the Shrimp
In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil if needed. Add the marinated shrimp and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, until they turn pink and opaque.

6
Plate the Dish
On a plate, serve the sautéed swai fillets topped with the cooked shrimp alongside a generous serving of crispy French fries. Optionally, garnish with extra lemon wedges and parsley.
