EASY Summer Supper or Side Dish

{Meegan’s Garlic Broccoli and Shrimp Skillet Meal}

Ingredients:

1 dozen frozen shrimp (thawed)

3 heads broccoli (cut up)

2 cloves garlic (chopped)

3-5 Tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil

On medium heat, warm pan add 3 Tablespoons Olive Oil

 Add chopped broccoli. Toss occasionally to avoid burning.

At this point you may need to add more olive oil, as the broccoli will absorb it quickly.

When the broccoli is tender, add garlic and shrimp.

The heat of the pan and broccoli with cook the shrimp until pink.

Toss often to avoid garlic burning.

When the shrimp is pink and the broccoli is bright green, your meal is ready.

This whole process will take about 15 minutes.
