Spanish Garlic Shrimp (84 of 150)

Yesterday was Sunday dinner and our theme was Spanish. It was also a wroaming Sunday dinner so that meant I had to only bring an appetizer. 

When I was in Spain I loved their shrimp tapas. This one was just as good. It was easy and delicious. 

Spanish Garlic Shrimp

Recipe from Goya

Serves 4

• 1.5 lbs Whole Shrimp peeled & de-veined
• 3 tbsp Minced Garlic
• 3 tbsp Olive Oil
• 2 tbsp Sherry Cooking Wine
• 1.5 tsp Smoked Paprika
• 1.5 tsp Red Chili Flakes
• 1 medium Lemon juiced
• Kosher Salt to taste
• Chopped Parsley for garnish
• Toasted Bread for serving

First, add your olive oil to melt in the skillet. Next, add the minced garlic and red chili flakes and let it brown for 90 seconds. 

Once browned, add all of your shrimp to the skillet (make sure to not overcrowd the pan), season with paprika, salt & pepper then cook for about 90 seconds on the first side. 

Flip the shrimp over and then deglaze the skillet with the sherry wine and the lemon juice. 

Stir and little and continue to cook the shrimp for another 1-2 minutes until fully done. When the shrimp are done, pull the whole skillet off the fire to cool.

Garnish the skillet with chopped parsley and crusted bread. Serve and enjoy!
