As faithful readers, you know how often I cook with shrimp. It's been a favorite of mine since I was a kid and it was part of a meal we would eat at a local fish place in Berkeley. CA when I was growing up. As I've grown into an adult, shrimp recipes have always found a way into my ever growing culinary arsenal and I cook it frequently. Coupled with one of my other favorite foods, GARLIC, this is an easy and flavorful meal.

12 oz medium shrimp, shelled and deveined
1/4 cup olive oil
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 small shallot, sliced into rings
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1 Tablespoon lemon juice
1 Tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

Thoroughly rinse the shrimp and pat them dry with paper towels. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add shallot, garlic and red pepper flakes; saute one minute. Increase heat to high....
