Instructions

1.
In a medium skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. The oil should shimmer but not smoke, ensuring it's ready for cooking.
2.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for about 30 seconds or until it's fragrant. Be careful not to let the garlic burn, as this will impart a bitter taste.
3.
Add the shrimp to the skillet in a single layer. Cook them for about 2-3 minutes on one side without moving them to establish a nice sear. They should start turning pink and opaque at the edges.
4.
Flip the shrimp and pour the lemon juice over them, stirring gently for even coverage. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until fully pink and opaque throughout.
5.
Sprinkle the chopped fresh parsley over the shrimp, giving the dish a fresh, vibrant flavor. Toss gently to combine and serve immediately for the best texture.
