Great quick dinner! Substitute any fresh vegetable you like for the asparagus. Precook the veg in the microwave if it won't cook in the 3-4 minutes it will be in the skillet with the shrimp. I guess you could even leave out the shrimp and add another vegetable if you want!

Tips and Tricks:

- **Mise en place:** Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients prepped and measured out. This will help you stay organized and prevent any scrambling during the cooking process. - **Use fresh, high-quality ingredients:** The quality of your ingredients will greatly impact the final dish. Whenever possible, use fresh vegetables, seafood, and herbs. - **Don't overcrowd the pan:** When cooking shrimp, it's important not to overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the shrimp from cooking evenly and can lead to soggy shrimp. - **Cook the shrimp until it's opaque:** The best way to tell if shrimp is cooked is to look for an opaque color. The shrimp should also be slightly firm to the touch. - **Don't overcook the shrimp:** Overcooked shrimp is tough and rubbery. Be careful not to cook the shrimp for too long, as this will ruin the texture. - **Season the shrimp:** Shrimp can be seasoned with a variety of herbs, spices, and sauces. Some popular options include lemon, garlic, butter, and paprika. - **Serve the shrimp immediately:** Shrimp is best served immediately after it's cooked. This will help to preserve its flavor and texture.
