Ingredients

• 200 grams large shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 4 pieces eggs
• 2 tablespoons milk
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 small red bell pepper, diced
• 3 stalks green onions, chopped
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon paprika
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, whisk the eggs with the milk, salt, and black pepper. Set aside.

Step 2

Heat the olive oil and butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat until the butter is melted and frothy.

Step 3

Add the minced garlic and diced red bell pepper to the skillet. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until the bell pepper is tender.

Step 4

Add the shrimp to the skillet in a single layer. Sprinkle paprika over the shrimp. Cook for 2 minutes on one side, then flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until the shrimp turn pink and are fully cooked. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.

Step 5

Pour the whisked eggs into the skillet and reduce the heat to low. Stir gently with a spatula to scramble the eggs, incorporating the cooked bell peppers as you go.

Step 6

When the eggs are about halfway set, add the cooked shrimp and green onions to the skillet. Continue stirring gently until the eggs are fully cooked but still soft and creamy.

Step 7

Remove from heat and garnish with chopped parsley. Serve immediately, accompanied by toast or fresh salad if desired.
