1. Begin by heating the olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the butter has melted, add the minced garlic, stirring for about 1 minute until fragrant.
2. Add the shrimp to the skillet, spreading them out in a single layer. Sprinkle with paprika, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper.
3. Cook the shrimp for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they turn pink and opaque. Remember, overcooking shrimp can make them tough, so keep a close eye!
4. Squeeze the lemon juice over the shrimp and give everything a good stir to combine the flavors.
5. Remove from heat and garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.

Cooking with shrimp always reminds me of learning to follow my instincts in the kitchen, a lesson from my abuela. Trust your senses, and your dish will never disappoint!
