CHILI'S SPICY GARLIC & LIME SHRIMP

Chili's Spicy Garlic & Lime Shrimp image

I have not had these shrimp at the Chili's restaurant, but have frequently made this recipe. We like to serve them as appetizers. However, they are equally as good tossed with some pasta (with or without alfredo sauce). The recipe came from Top Secret Recipes and has been a favorite at our house for quite some time.

Categories Shellfish

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

1/2 pounds peeled and deveined medium shrimp
kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
3 to 4 dried chilies, roughly chopped
5 garlic cloves, crushed
juice of 1 lemon
3 tbsp chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

Season the shrimp with salt and pepper to taste. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add 1/2 tbsp of the oil to the pan and half of the chilies and cook 1 to 2 minutes. Increase the heat to medium-high, when hot add half of the shrimp. Cook undisturbed for about 1 1/2 minutes. Turn the shrimp over and cook until opaque throughout, about 1 minute. Transfer to a plate. Add the remaining 1/2 tablespoon of oil and remaining chilies; cook 1 to 2 minutes. Add the remaining shrimp to the pan and cook, undisturbed, for about 1 1/2 minutes. Turn the shrimp over, add the garlic, and cook until the shrimp is opaque throughout, about 1 minute. Return the first batch of shrimp to the skillet, mix well so that the garlic is evenly incorporated and remove the pan from the heat. Squeeze the lemon juice over the shrimp. Add the parsley and toss well. Serve with crusty whole wheat bread and a salad.

Tips:

To save time, use pre-peeled and deveined shrimp.
If you don't have chili paste, you can substitute 1 teaspoon of crushed red pepper flakes.
Feel free to adjust the amount of chili paste to your desired level of spiciness.
Serve the shrimp with your favorite sides, such as rice, noodles, or vegetables.
For a more flavorful dish, use a variety of chili peppers, such as serrano, jalapeño, and cayenne.
If you want a crispy shrimp, make sure to cook them over high heat and don't overcrowd the pan.

Conclusion:

This spicy shrimp with chilies and garlic is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is sure to please everyone at the table. The shrimp are cooked in a flavorful sauce made with chili paste, garlic, ginger, and soy sauce. Serve them over rice, noodles, or vegetables for a complete meal.
