Instructions
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil.

In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the shrimp to the skillet and sprinkle with the smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 2 minutes per side or until the shrimp are pink and cooked through. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise and lemon juice to create a tangy spread.
Toast the baguettes or sandwich rolls lightly in the oven or on a skillet until warm and slightly crispy.
