- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
Rinse the shrimp under cold running water, then pat dry with a paper towel. Set aside.
In a large bowl, combine the shrimp with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Toss until evenly coated.
Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the minced garlic and chili flakes to the skillet, stirring frequently for about 30 seconds or until fragrant.
Add the seasoned shrimp to the skillet in a single layer. Cook for 2-3 minutes on one side until they start to turn pink and develop a slight sear.
Flip the shrimp over and cook for another 2-3 minutes until fully cooked and opaque.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the butter and lemon juice. Toss the shrimp in the sauce to coat evenly.
Remove the skillet from the heat and garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
