  • Use a good quality olive oil for the best flavor. Extra virgin olive oil is a good choice.
  • Add the garlic and red pepper flakes to the olive oil before adding the shrimp. This will help to infuse the oil with flavor.
  • Use a dry white wine for the best flavor. Chardonnay or Sauvignon Blanc are good choices.
  • Add the lemon juice and parsley at the end of cooking to brighten the flavors.
