I love the smell of garlic quietly sauteing in olive oil. Its smell makes it very official that something fabulous is happening in my kitchen. This is a super simple recipe! It’s all about the garlic, baby!
Pour oil into a pan and heat on medium. Add garlic and saute on medium-low for 3 minutes. DO NOT have your flame too high, it will singe the garlic and yuck, it won’t be the same. Next add the shrimp. Now you may turn the flame to medium-high. Shrimp are cooked when they turn pink and curl up all snug, about 5–10 minutes depending on how big they are.
Sprinkle with salt and look over your shoulder because people will drift hypnotically into the kitchen from the scrumptious aroma!
Cook up some pasta, add a veggie or a salad, some crusty rolls for dipping into the garlic oil, and voila! You are one popular chick!
P.S. When you are chopping fresh garlic, first cut the end off and then press the clove with the flat end of your knife. It will pop the skin off and peel in a snap AND it releases the oils in the garlic. Yep, it does!
