Spicy Cilantro Lime Shrimp Skillet

CRAZY SIMPLE DELICIOUS protein prep!

Toss those little shrimpy-morsels into your skillet…shake/shake/shake…swirl on the {fresh} lime, sprinkle the chili flakes {if you like it hot} then pile on top of a big salad {don’t forget the guacamole!}

Makes about 3 servings

Ingredients:

  • 1 lb. raw shrimp, peeled and deveined, tails on
  • 1 Tbsp unrefined coconut oil, or ghee
  • 3 cloves fresh garlic, minced or pressed
  • 1-inch nob of fresh ginger, peeled, and grated
  • 1/2 tsp chili flakes, or to taste
  • juice of 1 fresh lime
  • sea salt and fresh ground black pepper, to taste
  • a small handful of fresh cilantro leaves picked to garnish

Instructions:

Heat coconut oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Add the garlic and ginger, then cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.

Stir in your shrimp, chili flakes, lime juice, and cook until pink about 3-4 minutes.

Season with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper and sprinkle with fresh picked cilantro.

I serve these on top of a big salad, over cauliflower rice, or on top of quinoa.

Enjoy!
