  2. In a large saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
  3. Add the garlic powder and creole seasoning to the hot oil. Stir for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  4. Add the peeled and deveined shrimp to the saucepan.
  5. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the shrimp turn pink and opaque. (Cooking time depends on shrimp size).
  6. Serve immediately. Squeeze the juice of one lime half over the shrimp before serving, and garnish with the reserved lime zest.
