"Recipes are meant to be shared"

It is my intention to add a couple of recipes here every week. Although between working and playing with my daily blog 'Thibeault's Table', I'm not always successful.

Spanish Tapa - Garlic Shrimp


Spanish Tapa - Garlic Shrimp
============================

6 Tablespoons olive oil
4 cloves of garlic, thinly sliced
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 pound medium or large shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 tablespoons of chicken broth
2 tablespoons lemon juice
salt
2 Tablespoons minced parsley
Italian or French Bread cut into cubes

Heat the oil, garlic and red pepper flakes in a large, shallow pan. When the garlic just begins to turn golden, add the shrimp and cook over high heat for about 3 minutes, stirring constantly. Add the broth and lemon juice. If serving in the living room, pour into a large earthenware bowl and sprinkle with salt and parsley. Serve immediately. Goes great with a nice dry white wine, dry sherry, or Martini Note: Use more chicken broth and lemon juice if you like more sauce to dip the bread into.
