- Add the marinated shrimp with their juices and a few lemon slices into the skillet. Sauté for about 2-3 minutes on each side until shrimp turn opaque and slightly firm.
- Remove skillet from heat. Serve the shrimp immediately garnished with freshly chopped parsley and additional lemon slices if desired.
