You will wash your raw shrimp, add to a bowl, and add all the seasonings, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and 1 lime juice. As you can see I added a lot of the seasonings BUT I was very mindful on the salt. Add seasonings to taste.

After at least 30 minutes you will add your raw shrimp to your pan and cook. YOU DO NOT add any non stick spray or oils since we already added olive oil in the beginning to the mix.
