Step-by-step cooking
Step 1:
Defrost shrimp at room temperature. Rinse under running water in a colander, leave excess liquid to drain. Two unpeeled garlic cloves should be washed well, the remaining two cloves should be cleaned and finely chopped.
Step 2:
Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan (olive oil can also be used.) Put the shrimp in a frying pan, add salt, add unpeeled garlic, ground red pepper and fragrant. Mix everything well. At this stage of cooking, you can use, if desired, dry basil or oregano, rosemary and other favorite spices.
Step 3:
As soon as the shrimp turn red, add the finely chopped garlic and cook for about one to two minutes, stirring. It is very important not to overdo the shrimp on high heat, otherwise the tender meat can become rubbery and tough.
Step 4:
Add finely chopped green onions to the shrimp, sprinkle with the juice of freshly squeezed lemon and mix everything well again. Instead of green onion feathers, you can use chives or finely chop shallots.
Step 5:
Put the finished shrimp in a serving plate, pour fragrant garlic oil on top and garnish with a fresh sprig of rosemary or thyme. It is very tasty both cold and hot.
There are a huge variety of dishes with shrimp. If guests are on the doorstep or need to cook something original and special, then serving shrimp to the table will be a great idea, especially since it usually takes very little time to cook them.
Shrimp have a lot of useful properties and at the same time have a delicate and rich taste.
Shrimp meat contains iodine, proteins and various trace elements. Nutritionists recommend eating seafood, including shrimp once or twice a week.
In this recipe, you can use any shrimp: royal, tiger or ordinary. The smaller the shrimp in size, the faster they will cook.
Serve lemon water and napkins with the finished dish to rinse your fingers after you peel the shrimp from the shell. This will remove the smell of seafood from your hands. To do this, pour cold water into a deep bowl, add the juice of a freshly squeezed lemon, throw a piece of citrus for beauty and serve with shrimp.
Bon appetit!
