GAMBAS AL AJILLO, SPANISH GARLIC SHRIMP



Gambas al Ajillo, Spanish Garlic Shrimp image

Any shrimp will do here, but I love this with spot prawns. You want lots of garlic, a little chile, and enough lemon to balance out the olive oil. This recipe is best done with shell-on shrimp that you peel at the table, but you can do it with peeled and deveined shrimp, too.

Juice of a lemon

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a large saute pan over high heat. When it just barely begins to smoke, add all the shrimp and toss to coat with the oil.
