1️⃣ Marinate the Shrimp 🦐
In a bowl, mix the shrimp with paprika 🌶️, cumin 🥄, olive oil 🫒, a pinch of salt 🧂, and pepper.
Let them marinate for at least 10 minutes while you prepare the other components. This will infuse the shrimp with bold, smoky Tex-Mex flavor! 💥

Add a squeeze of fresh lime juice 🍋, season with salt and pepper, and mix well.
Set aside in the fridge for a refreshing, zesty topping. ❄️
3️⃣ Cook the Shrimp 🔥
Heat a skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Cook shrimp 2–3 minutes per side until pink, juicy, and lightly charred. 😋
(If using precooked shrimp, sauté for just 2 minutes to warm through.)
