- For frozen shrimp, defrost overnight or quick-defrost by running under cold water in a colander. By this method, the shrimp should no longer be icy after three minutes. Afterward, drain the shrimp thoroughly and blot the moisture with paper towels.
- Toss the shrimp with pepper, salt, and a tablespoon of olive oil. Then, bring a skillet to heat over a medium-high stove.
- Pour the remaining olive oil into the skillet and let it cook to hotness. Then, spread the shrimp in a single layer inside the pan. Ensure the skillet is big enough for this purpose, so you don’t have to cook in batches.
- Let the shrimp cook untouched for two minutes, by which they’ll begin to curl and turn pinkish underneath. Then, flip them quickly and col for about a minute, after which they’ll completely curly and look pink and translucent.
- Take the shrimp to a serving platter and garnish with the minced parsley. Then, serve with lemon wedges.
