I make that all the time, but use clarified butter in place of evoo.

Served with crusty bread, it's a cardiologist nightmare.

Heat oil in a large, heavy skillet or shallow heat-proof casserole. Add garlic and saute until slices just begin to color. Skim them from the pan and reserve them.
Increase the heat to high. Add the shrimp and sear about a minute, until they are just cooked through. Remove from the heat, sprinkle with the pepper and return the garlic to the dish. Season to taste with salt, toss all the ingredients together and serve at once.


I don't see why that needs to be a number of steps. I'd simply cook it all at once. The shrimp would take no more than three minutes to cook, so the garlic wouldn't burn. I also don't see the point of salting the shrimp and putting them in the fridge. They're not gonna go bad in 30 minutes.

Just mix ALL the ingredients with the oil, and add a generous amount of lemon juice. Let them marinate for half an hour. Or more, if you're not ready to eat yet. But not long enough for the lemon juice to cook the shrimp. I'd also add some Worcestershire sauce. It adds flavor.

Heat the skillet to high, and dump everything in. Cook till the shrimp are done. Add a big handful of chopped parsley, and you're done. You can eat 'em with a baguette...

That's a tasty combination of ingredients. I wonder if the salt, rince, and dry step helps remove moisture to develop color on the shrimp without over-cooking it? I've never followed those steps, I wish the author wrote more about why. I'm craving some garlic shrimp!
