Preparation

Step 1

Pat shrimp dry with paper towels. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and red pepper flakes; sauté one minute. Increase heat to high. Add shrimp and paprika.

Cook, stirring briskly, for 2 minutes. Add lemon juice; cook one minute more, just until shrimp are pink and cooked through (do not overcook shrimp, it toughens them). Transfer to a platter with a slotted spoon. Add salt and pepper to taste. Sprinkle with parsley; serve immediately.
