If you're planning a quick and filling shrimp dish, tomatoes, zucchini, and baby corn make a delicious accompaniment. Since all these ingredients don't require long cooking times, the ideal solution is to stir-fry everything, quickly stirring occasionally to enhance the color and flavor of the vegetables while preserving their juiciness and freshness. For spices, add only fresh garlic and basil. Their vibrant flavors complement the dish perfectly. Before serving, sprinkle with shaved Parmesan and a squeeze of lemon juice.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:

In a large skillet, heat the butter and olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and garlic and cook until the shrimp turn pink, about 3 minutes. Transfer the shrimp to a plate.
Increase the heat to high and add the zucchini. Cook, stirring, for about 45 seconds, then push the zucchini toward the sides of the pan. Add the corn and cook for another minute, then push it toward the sides of the pan. Add the grape tomatoes and cook, stirring, for another minute. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Then return the shrimp to the pan. Stir-fry everything together for about 45 seconds, or until all ingredients are evenly combined and heated through. Then transfer to a large platter.
Sprinkle with fresh basil and shaved Parmesan and... the best part... drizzle with lemon juice. This will add a wonderful freshness to the dish.

You can serve the stir-fry with rice, pasta, or just eat it as is.
