Garlic Shrimp and Veggie Stir Fry: A Flavor-Packed Weeknight Meal

Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Season the shrimp with salt and pepper, then add them to the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side until pink and opaque. Remove and set aside.

Cook the Vegetables:
In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil. Sauté the onion and garlic for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Add the bell peppers, snap peas, and cherry tomatoes. Cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the veggies are tender-crisp.

Make the Sauce:
Reduce the heat to medium. Add the butter, soy sauce, lemon juice, and red pepper flakes to the skillet. Toss the vegetables in the sauce to coat them evenly.

Combine and Serve:
Return the shrimp to the skillet and toss everything together until heated through. Adjust seasoning if needed. Serve immediately, garnished with fresh parsley and lemon wedges for squeezing over the top.
