Ingredients
- 1½ lbs large shrimp, peeled
- 6 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
- ⅓ cup extra-virgin olive oil
- ½ teaspoon chili flakes
- ½ cup dry white wine
- 1 lemon and parsley
Instructions
- 01
Infuse the oil. Warm the oil with garlic and chili over medium-low until the garlic is pale gold, not brown.
- 02
Sear hot. Raise the heat and add dry shrimp in a single layer. Two minutes a side, no more.
- 03
Deglaze. Add the wine and let it reduce until it coats the shrimp.
- 04
Finish. Kill the heat, add lemon juice and parsley and toss.
Larry’s rule: Dry the shrimp with paper towels first. Wet shrimp steam grey instead of searing.
