Gambas al ajillo
Ingredients
- 12 Raw King Prawns
- 3 Garlic Clove
- 100 ml Olive Oil
- 3 Cayenne Pepper
- 1 tablespoon chopped Parsley
Instructions
- Peel the prawns, leaving the tails on, and carefully remove the veins. Season lightly with sea salt. If using a frying pan, the prawns can also be cooked in their shells.
- Place the olive oil, thinly sliced garlic and chillies in a flameproof terracotta dish or wide frying pan and set over high heat. Heat until the garlic turns lightly golden and fragrant, taking care not to let it brown.
- Add the prawns to the hot oil and cook for 1–2 minutes on each side, until just pink and cooked through.
- Remove from the heat, sprinkle with the chopped parsley and finish with freshly ground black pepper. Serve immediately, taking care as the oil and dish will remain hot.
