👨‍🍳 Method

1. 1
   Pat the shrimp thoroughly dry with paper towels and sprinkle them with the paprika, chili pepper, salt and black pepper.

   Paper towels
2. 2
   Heat the butter and the olive oil in a wide pan over high heat.

   💡What you brown (meat, patties, schnitzel) goes into hot oil: in lukewarm oil it soaks it up and comes out greasy. For onion and garlic that you soften, oil heated over medium or low heat is enough; do not wait for it to smoke.
3. 3
   Add the garlic and fry 30 seconds, until fragrant.

   💡Add by cooking time: what needs long (onion, carrot, meat) goes in first, and what burns fast (garlic, dry spices) goes in last, only until fragrant.
4. 4
   Add the shrimp in a single layer and fry 1 minute, until pink.

   💡Shrimp are done the moment they turn pink and curl: another minute on the heat and they go tough and rubbery, so the sauce reduces for just a few minutes.
5. 5
   Pour the lemon juice into the pan and cook with the shrimp 2 minutes, until the sauce reduces slightly.
