INGREDIENTS
7 ounces Shrimp (about 198 grams)
200 grams Asparagus
2 teaspoons Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic
1 whole Lemon
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Trim the woody ends of the asparagus, then toss them in 1 teaspoon of olive oil, a pinch of salt, and a pinch of black pepper. Spread the asparagus on a baking sheet in a single layer.
Roast the asparagus in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly crispy.
While the asparagus is roasting, pat the shrimp dry with a paper towel and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Mince the garlic cloves finely and zest the lemon; then, cut the lemon in half to squeeze out the juice.
Heat the remaining 1 teaspoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the shrimp to the skillet in a single layer. Sear for approximately 2-3 minutes on each side until the shrimp turn pink and opaque.
During the last minute of cooking, add the lemon zest and squeeze half of the lemon juice over the shrimp.
Remove the shrimp from the skillet and plate them alongside the roasted asparagus. If desired, drizzle a bit more lemon juice over the asparagus before serving.
