Shrimp and broccoli cook quickly in this easy one-pot recipe, perfect for busy weeknights. Serve this healthy shrimp recipe over whole-grains or rice.

Ingredients:

  • 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
  • 6 medium cloves garlic, sliced, divided
  • 4 cups small broccoli florets
  • ½ cup diced red bell pepper
  • ½ teaspoon salt, divided
  • ½ teaspoon ground pepper, divided
  • 1 pound peeled and deveined raw shrimp (21-30 count)
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice, plus more to taste

Directions:

  1. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add half the garlic and cook until beginning to brown, about 1 minute. Add 4 cups broccoli, ½ cup bell pepper and ¼ teaspoon each salt and pepper. Cover and cook, stirring once or twice and adding 1 tablespoon water if the pot is too dry, until the vegetables are tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and keep warm.

Add 1 pound of shrimp and the remaining ¼ teaspoon each salt and pepper; cook, stirring, until the shrimp are just cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes. Return the broccoli mixture to the pot along with 2 teaspoons lemon juice and stir to combine.
