  10. Transfer the cooked shrimp to a serving plate. Try to leave any peppers (if used) in the pan, as they have already served their purpose. Garnish the dish with lemon and fresh herbs. You can pair these shrimp with a creamy sauce and serve them with a glass of white wine or enjoy them with tomato sauce alongside a cold beer.

Recipe Notes

Keep in mind that any type of oil is safe to use only up to a certain temperature - the smoking point. Beyond this point, the oil begins to burn, releasing harmful substances, including carcinogens.

Remember that the choice of the right frying pan is crucial for the success of any recipe.

Taste preferences vary widely when it comes to saltiness, sweetness, bitterness, spiciness, acidity, and heat. Therefore, when adding spices, herbs, and seasonings, it's essential to adjust them to your personal taste. If you're experimenting with a new seasoning, be cautious, as some spices, like chili pepper, can be especially potent and should not be overused.
