Tomas’ shrimp pil pil
By Veronique Christensen — Friday, September 25th, 2009This is so incredibly delicious, you are going to want to run out & buy shrimp right away.
For reals.
Shrimp Pil Pil is one of our family’s favorite dishes & whenever I need a pick-me-up I have Tomas make it for me (I make sure to keep frozen shrimp in stock at all times & buy extra whenever it’s on sale).
You’ll need:
- 2 pounds of medium-large shrimp, peel on
- 1/2 cup chopped parsley
- 1 cup olive oil
- 6-7 cloves of garlic
- Red pepper flakes
- Paprika
- Sal & Pepper
To do:
Heat olive oil, add garlic and spices until hot (30 seconds or so), then add the shrimp. Cook on meduim-high until pink all the way through – a couple minutes on each side. When done toss in the parsley and serve with crusty baguette and a salad tossed in a simple vinaigrette.
Serves my family of five with no leftovers.
