Garlic shrimp recipe is not new to me as I would always cook this recipe for the family. The hubby is allergic to shrimps so he doesn't share our delight and enjoyment when we have garlic shrimps in our meals. I don't use olive oil to sautee the shrimps, instead I use butter which adds to the flavor and yellow color of the cooked shrimps. Great for boiled or fried rice or bread in this recipe.

I adore this dish...wish I could remember how many times I've had it while living in Spain.
