Ingredients
Shrimp
You will need one pound of large shrimp, peeled and deveined. Fresh or frozen shrimp can work well; however, ensure they are completely thawed if using frozen. Shrimp cooks quickly and absorbs flavors beautifully.
Olive Oil
Use two tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil to sauté the ingredients. This oil not only helps to cook the shrimp evenly but also adds a rich flavor that complements the garlic and parmesan.
Garlic
Incorporate four cloves of minced garlic into the dish. Fresh garlic provides an aromatic element that enhances the overall taste profile of your meal.
Bell Peppers
Add one red bell pepper and one yellow bell pepper, diced into bite-sized pieces. They add color and sweetness while providing a nice crunch to balance the tender shrimp.
Zucchini
Include one medium zucchini sliced into half-moons. Zucchini cooks quickly and absorbs flavors well, making it an excellent addition to this dish.
Parmesan Cheese
You will need half a cup of grated parmesan cheese for this recipe. It gives richness while adding a salty flavor that pairs perfectly with the other ingredients.
Italian Seasoning
Use one teaspoon of Italian seasoning to enhance the flavor profile of your dish. This blend typically includes herbs like oregano, basil, and thyme—perfect for seafood dishes!
Salt and Pepper
Season with salt and black pepper to taste. These staples help bring out the flavors of all ingredients without overpowering them.
