Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 pounds Shrimp large, head-on
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 teaspoon canola oil or olive oil
  • 1 head garlic peeled and minced
  • ½ cup 7-Up or Sprite
  • ½ teaspoon red chili pepper flakes
  • salt to taste
  • black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Using scissors, trim tendrils off shrimps. Rinse and drain very well.
  2. In a skillet over low heat, add butter and oil.
  3. When butter begins to melt, add garlic and cook, stirring frequently, for about 30 to 40 seconds or until lightly browned and aromatic.
  4. Raise heat to high. Add shrimp and cook, stirring regularly, for about 1 minute.
  5. When they begin to change color, add 7-up.
  6. Add chili pepper flakes and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  7. Continue to cook for about 2 to 3 minutes or until shrimps turn pink and liquid is mostly absorbed. Serve hot.

Notes

  • Drain the shrimp very well to prevent too much liquid from being expelled during cooking.
  • Garlic burns fast, resulting in a bitter taste. Cook it on low heat to draw out the maximum flavor before it browns.
  • Do not overcook the shrimp. They are done as soon as their color changes to pink. When overcooked, they tend to become rubbery in texture, and the skin becomes difficult to remove.
