In a large bowl, season the shrimp with the salt and paprika. Toss to combine.
In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-low heat. Add the garlic and cook for about 2 minutes until it starts to turn light golden, making sure the garlic does not burn.
Increase the heat to medium-high and add the shrimp. Sear for about 2 minutes. Pour in the sherry and continue to cook, stirring continuously, until the shrimp is cooked through, about 1 minute. Remove from the heat.
Add the lemon juice and parsley. Serve immediately. Enjoy!
Notes
Be careful not to burn the garlic or it will make the sauce taste bitter
