Downloaded it and made it tonight.
I'm a hit and miss cooker, but this ranks a
10 against any Greek Restaurant.
Quick and delicious, this recipe for shrimp with fresh garlic meze or appetizer goes well with rice for a larger meal. The recipe calls for large unshelled shrimp by weight with the heads on. If you buy shrimp with the heads removed, the number of shrimp per pound will increase, so remember to increase other ingredients in the recipe accordingly.
Cook Time: 30 minutes Ingredients:
1/2 cup of olive oil
6 fresh garlic cloves , finely chopped
1 pound of large unshelled shrimp with heads on (about 20 shrimp)
1/4 cup of brandy
1/4 cup of fresh orange juice
1/2 teaspoon of sea salt
1/8 teaspoon of freshly ground pepper
1-2 rounded tablespoons of finely chopped fresh parsley
1/4 to 1/2 cup of water
1- teaspoon paprika
1- teaspoon chilly powder
Preparation:
Shrimp with Fresh Garlic
In a skillet, bring oil to medium-high heat. Sauté the garlic chilly powder, and paprika until garlic is soft and add shrimp. Continue to sauté for 2 minutes, then douse (deglaze) with brandy. Add orange juice and cook for a few minutes until most of the liquid cooks off. Remove shrimp and place on hot serving plates.
Add salt, pepper, parsley, and water to pan juices. Bring to a boil and cook for about 8 minutes, until there's just a small amount of sauce in the pan. Pour the sauce over the shrimp and serve.
