olive oil

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

💰Cheaper: canola oil

Canola oil is more affordable and neutral in flavor.

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a skillet until hot.

Slice 1 large shallot thinly and add it to the skillet, sautéing until it starts to brown.

Slice 2 small lemons into thin slices, keeping the peel on, and add them to the skillet with the shallots.

Sauté the shallots and lemon slices together until they start to brown and sizzle.

Add 4 tablespoons of harissa to the skillet, mixing well with the shallots and lemon, and heat to bring out the flavors.

Once the harissa is heated, add the shrimp to the skillet and cook until they are pink and opaque, about 2-3 minutes on each side.

Remove from heat and serve immediately.
