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, heat the olive oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp in a single layer and cook for 2 minutes. Flip the shrimp, then add the garlic and red pepper flakes. Cook until the shrimp are pink and opaque, about 2 minutes more. Season with the remaining salt. Done when pink and opaque, flakes easily, 145°F.
Fluff the rice with a fork and stir in the lemon juice and chopped parsley. Plate the rice and top with the garlic shrimp and any oil from the pan.
