With only five ingredients, this dish is not only easy to prepare but also gluten-free, paleo, and low-carb, making it a perfect fit for various dietary preferences.

Why You’ll Love This Recipe

  • Quick and Easy: Ready in just 15 minutes, this recipe is perfect for those busy weeknights when you want something tasty without spending hours in the kitchen.
  • Healthy: Packed with protein from shrimp and the goodness of fresh tomatoes, this dish is both nutritious and satisfying.
  • Flavorful: The combination of garlic, dill, and olive oil creates a rich and aromatic sauce that complements the shrimp beautifully.
  • Diet-Friendly: Whether you’re following a gluten-free, paleo, or low-carb diet, this recipe fits the bill.

Ingredients

To whip up this delightful dish, you’ll need the following ingredients:

  • 4 tomatoes, chopped
  • 5 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • A bunch of dill, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Tomatoes: Start by chopping the tomatoes into smaller pieces. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Add the tomatoes and cover with a lid. Allow them to cook until they start boiling, approximately 4-5 minutes. By the end, they should resemble a thick tomato sauce.
  2. Cook the Shrimp: Add the shrimp to the pan and cook for another 4-5 minutes until they turn pink and are cooked through.
  3. Add Flavor: Stir in the minced garlic, chopped dill, and the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Mix everything well to ensure the flavors meld together.
  4. Serve Immediately: This dish is best enjoyed fresh off the stove. Serve it immediately for maximum flavor.

Helpful Tips

  • Tomato Consistency: If your tomato sauce turns out too runny, don’t worry! Adding a tablespoon of tomato paste can help thicken it up. While I didn’t need to do this in my experience, it’s a handy trick if needed.
  • Shrimp Selection: Opt for large shrimp as they are meatier and provide a satisfying bite. Ensure they are peeled and deveined for convenience.
