I know I just did a shrimp recipe a few weeks ago, but shrimp is just too yummy and quick to not eat often. This one has a ridiculously easy marinade and then just a few minutes in a hot skillet and dinner is ready. This would also be great served over pasta for a heavier meal. We ate it with a salad of blood oranges and red onions.
1 pound shrimp, peeled and deviened
Juice from 1 lime
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1/4 cup olive oil
salt and pepper to taste
Combine all ingredients in a non-reactive bowl (glass or ceramic), and toss well to combine. Allow to marinate in fridge for an hour.
Remove shrimp from fridge. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add shrimp and marinade to pan when pan is hot and cook until shrimp are opaque. Serve with pan juices.
Shrimp has been my favorite & easy go to protein lately especially since the peeled and deveined variety is so affordable at Trader Joe's.
ReplyDeleteI agree, have you tried the 'Mexican' shrimp from Trader Joe's? It's even cheaper, but the flavor is not quite as shrimpy, but they are good with a bold sauce.
