Recipe: Sizzling Garlic Shrimp

SIZZLING GARLIC SHRIMP

1 pound (26 to 30 count) large shrimp in shell
Coarse salt (to taste)
1 cup olive oil
5 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1/2 small dry red chili pepper, crumbled
2 tablespoons fresh flat-leaf parsley, minced
Bread (for serving)

Pat shrimp dry and sprinkle with salt.

Combine olive oil and garlic over medium-low heat until oil is hot and garlic begins to sizzle gently. Cook until garlic is very fragrant but not colored, 2 to 3 minutes; reduce heat, if necessary.

Add chili and stir for 30 seconds.

Add shrimp, cook stirring, until shrimp are just cooked, about 3 minutes.

Season with salt to taste, stir in parsley and cook 15 seconds.

Serve with bread.
