Hungry for a different way to have shrimp? Different than the standard Shrimp Cocktail?
Here's the recipe that will become one of your favorites, like it is ours!
First make a spicy mixture of flour, red pepper flakes, and chipotle chili pepper, salt & pepper. Dredge the cooked, deveined, thawed shrimp in the flour mixture.
Leave the tails on so you will have a little "handle"
Finely mince some garlic and chili pepper. About a tablespoon of each.
You will also need a tablespoon of dried minced basil.
Warm some olive oil in a non-stick skillet. Add the shrimp.
Don't move it around,it needs to get crispy.
Flip 'em over and crisp the other side.
Drain the shrimp on a paper towel. Add the garlic, chili, and basil to the remaining oil in the skillet.
Swish it around until the garlic is kinda soft.
Pool the garlic, chili, basil oil on a serving plate,
arrange the shrimp on top.
Alternately, you can drizzle the oil over the shrimp.
Tonight I served the shrimp with toasted garlic sourdough bread.
Enjoy friends!
