Posted on 28. May, 2011 by Rob Connor in High Protein Snacks

Although I am a big fan of seafood, I’ve never really eaten shrimps expect as ‘addition’ to a meal. This is possibly the first recipe I’ve come across for an outright shrimp meal, courtesy of our friends over at Metabolic Cooking.

After trying this one out, I was pleasantly surprised at just how nice it tasted and how little effort need to make.

If you like things with a little spicy ( I love em!) then you’re gonna love this one.

Ingredients:

• 8oz shrimps, shelled and deveined
• 1 tablespoon macadamia oil
• ½ teaspoon paprika
• Pinch cayenne pepper
• 2 cloves garlic, crushed

 Preparatiion:

1. In a skillet over medium-high heat. Saute the shrimp and garlic in the oil for about 5 minutes until it’s pink.
2. Sprinkle the paprika and cayenne over it.
3. Cook for about another minute and serve.
