Creating Creamy Garlic Shrimp Over Mashed Potatoes is simple if you follow these steps:

1. Prepare Mashed Potatoes: If you’re making homemade mashed potatoes, peel and chop the potatoes into chunks. Boil in salted water until tender, then drain and mash with butter, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
2. Sauté Shrimp: In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the shrimp and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they turn pink and opaque. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
3. Make Garlic Sauce: In the same skillet, add the remaining butter. Once melted, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
4. Add Cream: Pour in the heavy cream and stir to combine. Bring to a gentle simmer and add paprika, salt, and pepper to taste.
5. Combine Shrimp and Sauce: Return the cooked shrimp to the skillet, stirring to coat them in the garlic cream sauce. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until heated through.
6. Serve: Spoon the creamy garlic shrimp over a generous serving of mashed potatoes. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
