Prepare the Chimichurri: On a clean cutting board, finely mince the garlic cloves. Next, finely dice the shallot. Then, finely dice the red chili pepper. Finally, finely chop the fresh parsley.

Transfer all the minced garlic, diced shallot, diced red chili pepper, and chopped parsley into a small bowl. Pour a generous amount of olive oil over the ingredients. Season with black pepper, Italian seasoning, and red pepper flakes to taste. Stir all the ingredients thoroughly with a spoon until well combined. Set the chimichurri aside.

Season the Shrimp: Place the colossal shrimp (peeled, deveined, and with tails on) into a metal mixing bowl. Season the shrimp generously with black pepper, Italian seasoning, paprika, and garlic powder. Mix the shrimp and seasonings by hand, ensuring each shrimp is evenly coated with the spices.

Cook the Shrimp: Heat a pan on the stovetop over medium-high heat with a small amount of cooking oil. Once the pan is hot, carefully place the seasoned shrimp into the pan in a single layer, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Cook the shrimp for 2-3 minutes on one side until they begin to turn pink and opaque.

Using kitchen tongs, flip each shrimp to cook on the other side until they are fully opaque and cooked through, typically another 1-2 minutes. While the shrimp are finishing cooking, squeeze the juice from half a lemon directly over the shrimp in the pan. Remove the cooked shrimp from the pan and set aside.

Assemble the Dish: On a serving plate, arrange the pre-cooked broccolini (steamed and topped with minced garlic). Add two wedges of baked sweet potato to the plate. Carefully place the cooked shrimp alongside the broccolini and sweet potato. Spoon a generous amount of the prepared chimichurri sauce over the cooked shrimp.
