Shrimp in garlic oil - Healthy and easy to make tapas

Ingredients for 4 servings

• 500 g shrimp (prawns) (fresh or frozen)
• 2 chili peppers
• 8 garlic cloves
• 150 ml olive oil
• Salt and pepper

Preparation

Peel the garlic into quarters.

If you have fresh prawns, remove the peel and remove the insides.
Wash and core the peppers. Cut into thin rings. Caution: do not rub your hands in your eyes; it burns even when you have washed your hands.

Heat the oil in a frying pan. Use pre-cooked frozen prawns, add just the chili peppers and garlic for two minutes at medium heat, cook in oil and then add the prawns and cook for another 1-2 minutes. The prawns just need to be heated. If the prawns are heated too long, they can become tough.

You can use fresh prawns; all ingredients are simultaneously added to the oil for cooking. Cook for 2-3 minutes in hot oil.

Serve the prawns immediately in a bowl.

Preparation time: 15-20 minutes.

Information for buying fish

75% of global fish stocks are threatened from overfishing (i.e. endangered). The reasons for this are varied. Please play your role in making sure that fish remains available to us all as a nutritional and abundant food source.

Only buy fish that bears the seal of the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) for sustainable fishing methods. The MSC eco-label was introduced at the initiative of the WWF. In farmed fish, watch for the organic label for environmentally friendly farming of fish.
