Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh shrimp, garlic, and lemon zest will give your dish the best flavor.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: If you overcrowd the pan, the shrimp will not cook evenly and will become tough.
  • Cook the shrimp until they are just opaque: Overcooked shrimp will be tough and rubbery. Cook them just until they turn pink and opaque, about 2-3 minutes per side.
  • Use a large pan: This will help to prevent the shrimp from overcrowding and will also make it easier to stir them.
  • Add the lemon juice and zest at the end of cooking: This will help to preserve the bright citrus flavor.
  • Serve immediately: This dish is best served hot, so it's a good idea to have all of your ingredients prepped and ready to go before you start cooking.

Conclusion:

This spicy lemon garlic shrimp is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is sure to please everyone at the table. With its bright citrus flavor and tender, juicy shrimp, this dish is a winner. Serve it over rice, noodles, or your favorite vegetables for a complete meal.
