Mediterranean Sauteed Shrimp Skillet
Ingredients:
1.5 lbs peeled and deveined shrimp- or you can peel and devein your own.
½ tsp salt
2 ½ tsp dried oregano
1 ½ tsp paprika
1 ½ tsp cumin
2 tbsp olive oil
1 sliced yellow onion
6 cloves of garlic, minced
1 yellow bell pepper, chopped- honestly any color will work
1 tomato, diced
1 tbsp capers
Juice from 1 lemon
2 cups cooked brown rice
½ cup chopped green onion
Directions:
Mix the salt, oregano, paprika and cumin in a small bowl and set aside.
Place shrimp in a large bowl and add half the spice blend to it. Set the other half of the spice blend aside.
Heat olive oil in a large pan and saute onion for 3-5 minutes, until soft.
Add in the garlic, green onion, and bell pepper. Sautee with the remainder of the spice blend until softened.
Add the tomatoes and cook for 5 minutes.
Stir in the capers and lemon juice.
Add the shrimp and cook for 3-5 minutes, making sure to stir and flip the shrimp regularly. Be careful, shrimp overcooks and gets chewy very easily.
Serve with cooked brown rice.
