Garlic Parmesan Shrimp
The fastest and tastiest Mediterranean shrimp dish you’ll every create.
Make this is as an appetizer and serve alone or with some cocktail sauce. I typically serve this with some rice or spaghetti squash to make it a healthy dinner, alongside some broccoli or asparagus.

The quickness of this dish is the best part. Shrimp cooks so fast and happens to be a low fat and excellent source of protein. You most definitely have all of these ingredients on hand. Recipe is slightly adapted from damndelicious.net

The taste is incredible because who doesn’t love garlic, parmesan and lemon flavors? Serve with some extra lemon wedges.

How would you change the timing for the recipe if you use already cooked defrosted shrimp?
Delicious! This was so easy, fast and full of flavor! I love how healthy it is as well. Another one of your recipes to add to my recipe box.
