Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a small bowl, combine the saffron threads with the warm water. Let it steep for about 10 minutes to release the flavor and color.
- On a baking sheet, toss the halved cherry tomatoes with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them out in a single layer.
- Roast the cherry tomatoes in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until they are blistered and soft.
- While the tomatoes are roasting, heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute, or until fragrant.
- Add the shrimp to the skillet, followed by the saffron mixture and smoked paprika. Season with salt and pepper. Cook the shrimp for 3-4 minutes, or until they turn pink and are cooked through, stirring occasionally.
- Once the tomatoes are done roasting, gently fold them into the skillet with the shrimp.
- Remove from heat and sprinkle with fresh parsley.
- Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side for an extra burst of flavor.
Notes
This dish is not only vibrant and flavorful but also offers a delightful combination of textures with the juicy shrimp and roasted tomatoes. Enjoy your meal!
