Spanish Garlic Shrimp

Ingredients

Garlic - 14 cloves

Olive Oil - 8 tablespoons

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Chop 2 cloves of garlic and mix with the peeled shrimp, 2 tablespoons of oil, and salt. Let the shrimp marinate for 30 minutes.

Step 2

Crush 4 cloves of garlic, heat in a pan with 6 tablespoons of oil over medium heat for 4–7 minutes. Remove the pan from heat and let the oil cool to room temperature. Discard the garlic from the pan.

Step 3

Thinly slice the remaining 8 cloves. Return the pan to low heat, add the garlic, chili, and bay leaf to the oil. Cook until the garlic becomes soft, without letting it brown (4–7 minutes).

Step 4

Increase the heat to medium and add the shrimp with the marinade. Cook for 2 minutes on one side, then flip and sauté on the other side for 2 minutes.
