A simple and flavorful shrimp recipe that you can prepare quickly using your microwave.
Place the butter in a microwave-safe dish and microwave on high for 30 seconds until melted.
Ensure the butter is fully melted to evenly coat the shrimp.
Add the minced garlic, black pepper, and paprika to the melted butter and stir to combine.
Mix thoroughly to distribute the seasonings evenly.
Add the shrimp to the dish, ensuring they are in a single layer, and toss to coat with the butter mixture.
Arrange the shrimp in a single layer for even cooking.
Cover the dish with plastic wrap, leaving a small vent for steam, and microwave on high for 3 minutes.
Check the shrimp halfway through to ensure even cooking.
Remove the dish from the microwave, carefully uncover, and squeeze fresh lemon juice over the shrimp before serving.
Lemon juice adds a bright and tangy flavor to the dish.
