Ingredients
- 500 grams large shrimp (peeled and deveined)
- 4 pieces garlic cloves (thinly sliced)
- 1 piece red chili (thinly sliced)
- 60 milliliters olive oil
- 1 teaspoon paprika (preferably smoked)
- 60 milliliters dry white wine
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper (optional, to taste)
- 2 pieces lemon wedges (for serving)
Directions
Step 1
Rinse the shrimp under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Set aside.
Step 2
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Step 3
Add the thinly sliced garlic and red chili to the skillet. Sauté for about 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until the garlic is fragrant and golden (be careful not to burn it).
Step 4
Sprinkle the smoked paprika into the skillet and stir for about 10 seconds to release its flavor.
Step 5
Increase the heat to medium-high and add the shrimp to the skillet in a single layer. Season with salt and black pepper (if using).
Step 6
Cook the shrimp for 2 minutes, then flip them over and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until they turn pink and opaque.
Step 7
Pour in the white wine and let it simmer for 1-2 minutes, allowing the alcohol to evaporate and the flavors to meld together.
Step 8
Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle the chopped parsley over the shrimp.
Step 9
Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side for a fresh citrus burst. It's delicious with crusty bread to soak up the garlic-infused oil.
