The Secret Is In The Oil

Forget bland boiled shrimp. The magic happens when you infuse high-quality extra virgin olive oil with thin slivers of garlic and dried Guindilla peppers. This isn't just a sauce; it's a liquid gold bath that transforms simple seafood into a gourmet masterpiece.

Pro Tip: Don't throw away the heads! If you can find head-on shrimp, the juices from the head add an incredible depth of flavor to the oil that you simply can't get otherwise.

3. Bread is Mandatory: You will want to soak up every single drop of that garlic oil.
