Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 lbs large shrimp
  • 1/4 teaspoon sweet Spanish paprika
  • pinch kosher salt
  • 1/4 cup parsley
  • 6 cloves garlic
  • 1 1/2 tbsp extra virgin Spanish olive oil
  • crushed red pepper flakes

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a spacious skillet, warm the oil over medium heat and incorporate the minced garlic along with the red pepper flakes.

  2. 2

    Stir the mixture until it reaches a golden hue, taking about 2 minutes, and watch closely to prevent burning.

  3. 3

    Introduce the shrimp to the skillet and sprinkle with a small amount of salt and paprika for seasoning.

  4. 4

    Allow the shrimp to cook for 2-3 minutes until they turn opaque and are fully cooked. Be cautious not to overcook them, as they may become tough and rubbery. Toss in the freshly chopped parsley and distribute the dish evenly onto 4 plates.
