INGREDIENTS

• 1/3 cup olive oil
• 1 1/2 oz. garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tsp chili flakes
• 1 1/4 lbs shrimp, peeled with the tail left on
• 1 tsp salt
• 3 tbsp fresh parsley, minced
• 1 lemon cut into wedges, to serve

DIRECTIONS

• Heat the oil over medium-low heat in a large, cast iron pan.
• Stir in the garlic and chili flakes. Cover and cook for five minutes or until the garlic turns a light yellow color, stirring regularly.
• In the meantime, season the shrimp with salt and let rest for five minutes. Once the garlic has turned a light yellow, increase the heat to medium. Add the shrimp to the pan and cook for 1-2 minutes (or until it turns light pink) and then turn over for another 1-2 minutes.
• Remove from heat and mix with the parsley. Garnish the shrimp with lemon wedges to serve.
