Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Shrimp tails
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 large Garlic cloves
- 1 whole Lemon
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
Instructions
Rinse the shrimp tails under cold water and pat dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
Peel and mince the garlic cloves.
Juice the lemon and set the juice aside.
Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick pan over medium high heat.
Add the minced garlic to the pan, stirring constantly for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the shrimp tails to the pan in a single layer without crowding. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on one side until they start to turn pink and slight golden browning.
Flip the shrimp tails and sprinkle with salt, black pepper, and paprika. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until fully cooked.
Pour the lemon juice over the cooked shrimp tails and give it a good stir to blend the flavors.
Chop the fresh parsley finely.
Transfer the cooked shrimp tails to a serving platter and garnish with chopped fresh parsley. Serve immediately.
