Juicy shrimp in a garlicky burst-tomato sauce with a whisper of chili and lemon — fast enough for a weeknight, good enough for guests.
Ingredients
- 12 oz raw shrimp, peeled
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
- 2 cups cherry tomatoes
- 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
- 1/4 cup dry white wine or broth
- 3 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
- 1/2 medium lemon
Instructions
- Pat the shrimp dry and season with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large skillet over medium-high and sear the shrimp 1 minute per side until just pink; remove — they'll finish later.
- Lower the heat to medium, add the rest of the oil with the garlic and red pepper flakes and cook 1 minute until the garlic is golden and fragrant (don't let it brown or it turns bitter).
- Add the tomatoes and a pinch of salt and cook 5-6 minutes, pressing some with your spoon, until they collapse into a glossy sauce.
- Pour in the wine and simmer 2 minutes to cook off the sharpness, then return the shrimp just until warmed through, about 1 minute.
- Off the heat, stir in the parsley and a squeeze of lemon. Serve with crusty bread to mop up the sauce.
