INGREDIENTS
8 ounces Shrimp, deveined
10 spears Asparagus
2 teaspoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic, minced
Juice of 1 Lemon
Salt and Pepper to taste
A pinch of Red Pepper Flakes
Fresh Parsley for garnish
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Trim the woody ends of the asparagus and toss them with half a teaspoon of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Arrange the asparagus in a single layer on the baking sheet and roast in the oven for 12-15 minutes until tender.
While the asparagus roasts, heat the remaining olive oil in a large pan over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic to the pan and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
Add the shrimp to the pan in a single layer. Season with salt, pepper, and a pinch of red pepper flakes. Sear the shrimp for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are pink and opaque.
Squeeze in the juice of one lemon over the shrimp during the last minute of cooking.
Plate the pan-seared shrimp alongside the roasted asparagus, garnish with a sprinkle of fresh parsley, and serve immediately.
