Spicy Garlic Pepper Shrimp is a fast and easy dinner for a weeknight.
I love how shrimp cooks up so fast and you can have it on hand in the freezer for a quick protein when you need dinner in a hurry. We love shrimp, and this recipe for spicy garlic pepper shrimp served over Spaghetti, steamed rice or creamy mashed potatoes is one of our favorite comfort food dinners, and so easy to whip up! Serve this shrimp over Spaghetti with Myzithra, YUM!
Garlic Spicy Shrimp
Perfectly seasoned shrimp with a little heat to spice things up. The red pepper flakes are the perfect amount of spicy. To make things easy, we love to use the preminced garlic that you can find in the produce section of the grocery store. It’s a great short cut. I usually buy the smallest container of it because I don’t want it to go bad before I use it up.
