Snapy Garlic Shrimp

This recipe, turned out so good! I was looking for something to make, that was great tasting, filling and also "take to work friendly" This worked out just great! I used the recipe with angel hair, but it could also be used  over rice, quinoa or a salad! Use your imagination! Here's what you'll need;

2lbs of shrimp (cleaned)
2 tbsp of  extra virgen olive oil
1/3 cup of lemon juice
3 cloves of garlic chopped
2 tsp paprika
1tsp red pepper flake
½ tsp salt
pinch of black pepper
¼ cup chopped fresh basil

Directions

In a medium pan add the olive oil and the garlic cook in low to medium heat for about a minute or two, add paprika, red pepper flake salt and pepper and stir mixture. Add the shrimp and toss to coat. Pour the lemon juice over the shrimp; allow to cook until the shrimp are bright pink on the outside. Add the basil and toss lightly.
