kosher salt and black pepper to taste
6 -8 tbs extra virgin olive oil

This is a common tapa in Spain. These shrimp are cooked quickly in small flame proof dishes called cazuelas over a hot flame.

Shell the shrimp, leaving the tails on. Season with salt and a little pepper.
Heat the oil, garlic and chili pepper in a cazuela or in a saute pan over medium high heat.
When the garlic starts to brown slightly, add the shrimp and cook for about 1 minute, stirring frequently.
After 1 minute stir in the lemon juice, white wine and parsley.
Serve on attractive appetizer plates, drizzled with some of the remaining sauce along with crusty bread for dunking.
