 Shrimp Preparation

-Place your cleaned shrimp into a large bowl and season with salt and black pepper. Toss well and set aside.

 -In a large skillet pour in your 2 tablespoons of oil over a medium heat.

-Once the pan gets hot add in your thinly sliced onions and thinly sliced pepper, sautรฉ for 2 minutes, veggies should still be a bit crisp and โ€œal denteโ€. 

-Remove the onions and peppers with a slotted spoon or tongs, and place them onto a large plate or large bowl. Set aside. 

-In the same pan add in the remainder of the 2 tablespoon of oil and turn the heat to high. Place in your slivered garlic, red pepper flakes and shrimp and sautรฉ for 2 minutes or until slightly golden.

 -Transfer the shrimp onto the same large plate or bowl that the veggies are in and set aside for later use.

-Reduce the heat to medium and in the same skillet pour in your marinara sauce, stir and simmer just until the marinara is heated through (2-4 minutes.) 

-Once the sauce is heated add in the shrimp, onion and pepper mix into the sauce and cook/stir for 2 minutes.

 -Serve and Enjoy!!! 

Optional โ€“ You can add 1 tablespoon of butter at the end and stir until butter dissolves in the mix. This will add a smoothness to the dish. 

Optional โ€“ Add flat leaf parsley on top of the final dish to bring color and flavor to it. You can do a half chopped parsley and half hand picked parsley, toss together both and add it to the top of the dish.
