Prep 15 min · Cook 10 min

In a small saucepan, combine the rice, water, and half the salt. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let rest covered for 5 minutes.
While the rice rests, pat the shrimp dry. Heat the olive oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp in a single layer and season with the remaining salt and black pepper. Cook for 2 minutes without moving them.
Flip the shrimp. Add the minced garlic, lemon zest, and red pepper flakes to the pan. Cook until the shrimp are opaque and the garlic is fragrant, about 2 minutes more. Done when shrimp are opaque and firm, 145°F.
Fluff the rice with a fork and stir in the lemon juice and parsley. Plate the lemon rice and top with the garlic shrimp and any oil remaining in the pan.
