Ingredients

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided

1 pound peeled and deveined raw shrimp (21-30 count)

Description

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.
Increase heat to medium-high and add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil to the pot. Add the remaining garlic and cook until beginning to brown, about 1 minute. 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.
