Spicy Chorizo Gambas Recipe

Season shrimp with salt and pepper. Set aside.

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add half the garlic and sauté until golden. Do not overcook. Remove from pan, strain garlic, and set aside.

Add more olive oil to skillet over medium-high heat (add enough to cover the bottom of the pan). When oil is hot, add the rest of the garlic and sauté until golden. Add chorizo; cook until red-orange oil is rendered and chorizo is almost cooked through, about 5 minutes.

Push chorizo to one side and add shrimps to the pan. Sprinkle paprika and chili flakes. Toss and cook until shrimps turn orange, about 2 to 3 minutes. Do not overcook shrimps.

Turn off heat. Add extra virgin olive oil and parsley; mix. Top with the strained garlic then serve immediately.
