Garlic Shrimp and White Beans Skillet

This dinner comes together fast using frozen shrimp and canned white beans, so there's no prep beyond chopping garlic. The shrimp cook quickly in olive oil with garlic and red pepper flakes, then canned white beans go right into the same pan to warm through and soak up all that flavor. A squeeze of lemon juice at the end brightens everything up. It's a simple, high-protein meal that's ready in about 20 minutes with just one skillet to clean.
