Spicy Lemon Garlic Shrimp

This Spicy Lemon Garlic Shrimp is part of my regular dinner rotation. It’s easy, quick to throw together, and tastes fabulous! I serve it over mashed sweet potatoes to balance out the spice. The creaminess of the sweet potatoes complements the spiciness of the shrimp. This is a dish you can make as spicy or as mild as you’d like, it’s all up to your own taste.
