  • Meatlovers! If using shrimp or jumbo shrimp, pat dry and season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Heat 1 tsp. olive oil in a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Cook shrimp undisturbed until seared on one side, 2-3 minutes. Flip, and cook until shrimp reaches a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 1-2 minutes. If using diced chicken, pat dry, and season both sides with a pinch of salt and pepper. Place a medium non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil. Stir occasionallyly until chicken reaches minimum internal temperature, 5-7 minutes.
