Heat a drizzle of oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Add the peppers. Stir & cook until slightly softened, about 2-3 min. Remove the peppers & set aside. - Step 6
Heat another drizzle of oil in the pan & add the seasoned shrimp in an even layer. Sear for 1-2 min on the first side. Flip & give them a stir.
