Perfectly sauteed shrimp needs just a handful of seasonings and a few minutes of cooking time to yield juicy, tender, buttery shrimp. Serve it over shrimp bowls, add it to shrimp salads, and more.
Pat dry the shrimp with a paper towel and place them in a large bowl.
Add the salt, pepper, Italian seasoning, and garlic powder.
Add the olive oil to a large skillet and place over medium heat. Once hot, add the shrimp in a single layer and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until they turn pink and start to curl.
