Spanish Garlic Shrimp (Gambas al Ajillo)
TIPS & TRICKS to Make this Recipe: I used raw frozen shrimp that I thawed out. But you can use fresh shrimp as well. Either way, make sure to pat them completely dry with paper towels. This removes any excess water, so the shrimp can absorb all the flavors in the pan.
