Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 cup olive oil
2 teaspoons finely chopped garlic
2 teaspoons hot red-pepper flakes
2 teaspoons salt
48 medium shrimp, peeled
Flat-leaf parsley, chopped

Steps:

  • Divide oil, garlic, red-pepper flakes, and salt evenly among 4 earthenware or ceramic flame-proof crocks.
  • One at a time or all at once, heat crocks over high heat until oil sizzles, 1 to 1 1/2 minutes. Add 12 shrimp to each crock, and cook just until pink, about 2 minutes. Immediately remove crocks from heat, sprinkle shrimp with parsley, and serve them still sizzling.

This recipe was a disaster. The shrimp were overcooked and the sauce was bland. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.
