Lemon Garlic Shrimp

Do you like shrimp? It thaws out pretty fast in water, and cooks up even faster. Here's a simple recipe for you.

 Sometimes I like to add paprika or a splash of white wine to this dish. 


Lemon Garlic Shrimp
Makes 2 servings

Ingredients
  • 2 teaspoon butter or olive oil
  • 2-4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 20-30 medium raw shrimp, peeled & deveined
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • salt
  • pepper
  • pinch of red pepper flakes
  • juice of 1/2 a lemon
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Directions
  1. In a nonstick pan, fry the garlic in butter over medium high heat for 30-60 seconds.
  2. Add the spices and cook for another minute.
  3. Add the shrimp and cook until they're mostly pink and just slightly raw in the centre. Toss them occasionally.
  4. When the shrimp are almost done, add the lemon juice and parsley and continue to simmer until shrimp are just cooked through. Be careful not to overcook or the shrimp will be chewy. 
  5. Serve with rice.
