  • Clean the shrimp properly: Remove the heads, tails, and shells from the shrimp. You can also devein the shrimp by making a shallow cut down the back of each shrimp and removing the dark vein.
  • Marinate the shrimp: Marinating the shrimp in a mixture of olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and herbs will help to infuse them with flavor. You can also add a pinch of cayenne pepper for a little bit of heat.
  • Cook the shrimp properly: Shrimp cooks very quickly, so it's important not to overcook it. Cook the shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are opaque and firm.
