Shrimp is one of those things that I sometimes love and sometimes hate. I hate shrimp in pasta, but I love coconut shrimp, shrimp cocktail and this spicy garlic shrimp. This was another dish I served at my Spanish tapas party about a month ago. It was probably the easiest recipe of the night and took the shortest amount of time to prep.

I used frozen shrimp from Costco that was already deveined and peeled.  I recommend going this route to make it super effortless for you.  And, with shrimp taking only 2 to 3 minutes to cook, this is a very quick weeknight meal.

There is no original source for this recipe.  I've had it before and just tried recreating it from memory.  It turned out fantastic!
