Ingredients
- 500 g raw shrimp/prawns peeled and deveined
- 4-6 garlic cloves thinly sliced
- 1-2 small red chilies thinly sliced (adjust to taste)
- ½ tsp red chili flakes
- 1 teaspoon sweet paprika optional
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- ½ cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1 pinch fresh parsley chopped, for garnish
- salt to taste
- crusty bread for serving
Instructions
- Ensure the prawns are peeled, deveined, and patted dry with a paper towel.
- In a large, heavy-based skillet or a clay dish (cazuela), heat the olive oil over medium heat.
- Add the sliced garlic and chilies to the hot oil. Cook gently for a few minutes, stirring frequently, until the garlic becomes golden and fragrant, but be careful not to burn it.
- Add the sweet and smoked paprika to the oil, stirring to combine.
- Increase the heat to medium-high and add the prawns to the skillet.
- Cook the prawns for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they turn pink and are just cooked through. Stir occasionally to ensure they cook evenly in the flavored oil.
- Season the prawns with a pinch of salt and remove the skillet from the heat.
- Garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
- Serve the prawns hot, directly from the skillet, with plenty of crusty bread on the side to soak up the delicious garlic and chili-infused oil.
