Ouzo Shrimp

I like ouzo. I like shrimp. Together they are fire. Truth be told, this is a hardly a recipe but more the idea of keeping it simple and not overcooking the shrimp.

INGREDIENTS:

• 1 pound shrimp cleaned ( I like to leave the head and tail on)

• half a cup flour (gluten free if you fancy)

• 1/3 cup GEVOO

• 3 garlic cloves, halved

• 1/4 a cup ouzo

• Salt and pepper

METHOD:

1. In a large bowl, mix salt, pepper, and flour well.

2. Lightly coat your shrimp in seasoned flour

3. Cover the bottom of a large frying pan with GEVOO

4. Add shrimp and garlic to the oil and sauté a few minutes until golden.

5. Carefully add ouzo to shrimp ( Alcohol is very flammable so make sure to lower the heat or pull off pan completely to prevent a flare up).

6. Using tongs or a slotted spoon, transfer shrimps to a paper towel lined plate to drain.

7. Transfer to a serving platter and serve hot
