¡Viva el rey! That’s what your guests will be saying once they’ve had a serving of these delicious Spanish Garlic Shrimp. Another relatively easy recipe that will dazzle the taste buds and doesn’t look half bad either. Guests will be trying to lick your cast iron pan clean after this one is gone.
Tips / Suggestions
- Be sure to keep plenty of space between the shrimp when searing. This will give them a better crust before flipping over. I like to check the first one I set down by lifting up slightly to see if it has a good sear.
- This dish can be pretty spicy. Go lighter on the paprika or red pepper flakes if you’re concerned.
- If you don’t have sherry cooking wine, just use any cheap red wine you have. Or you could use a cheap white wine.
