Chili Garlic Shrimp (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
→ Core Items
01 -
1 pound of jumbo or large shrimp, peeled and cleaned
02 -
5 cloves of garlic, finely chopped
03 -
½ teaspoon of sea salt, adjust to taste
04 -
2 tablespoons of unsalted butter
05 -
2 red chili peppers, diced
06 -
2 tablespoons of olive oil
07 -
½ teaspoon of black pepper, or to your liking
08 -
¼ cup of fresh parsley, finely sliced
# Instructions:
01 -
Melt the butter alongside the olive oil in a roomy frying pan over high heat. Once sizzling and fully combined, you're good to go.
02 -
Toss the shrimp into the hot pan, spreading them out in a single, even layer. Sprinkle with black pepper and salt. Let them cook for 2-3 minutes until they’ve turned pink and have a slightly golden crust around the edges.
03 -
Turn the shrimp over and give this side about 2 more minutes to cook. Add another sprinkle of salt and pepper to season the flipped sides.
04 -
Toss in the garlic, parsley, and chili peppers. Stir it all up so the heat pulls out those bold scents and flavors, letting it cook just long enough for the garlic to release its aroma—don’t let it brown.
05 -
Take the pan off the heat and serve warm. Try them alone as a small dish, over rice for a hearty option, or next to some simple steamed veggies.
# Notes:
01 -
Hot, spicy, and quick to make, this dish comes together in under 15 minutes!
02 -
It's a flexible choice—serve as a starter or toss over rice for something light.
03 -
Pair it with steamed veggies or a fresh side salad for a complete plate.
04 -
Turn the heat up or down by adding chilies to suit your taste.
