      Very nice but it is not "Spanish garlic shrimp". To me it seems more like "Spanish garlic shrimp" with other stuff thrown in, which, don't get me wrong, is delicious! I'm wondering if maybe this recipe comes from a region in Spain I have not ordered garlic shrimp in yet, though. That could be the case. But I've ordered garlic shrimp in a lot of Spanish places!

      When I am in Spain and go out for tapas ("appetizers") I order garlic shrimp. I've been making the dish at home for years and it is so easy. If anyone wants to try the "Spanish from Spain" kind of garlic shrimp, it's pretty simple: use garlic, extra virgin olive oil, and shrimp (of course!) and leave out the other ingredients. Serve with crusty bread and make sure you sop up the garlic-yummy-olive oil with your bread. Yes, cook the shrimp and garlic in enough oil so you can sop with your bread!

      Sometimes I can't decide if I like the garlic shrimp or the oil sopping more!

      It is a great recipe! I added bow pasta to it and top it with grated parmesan-asiago cheese. My favorite fruity house salad and some wine completed the meal. Ummmm! Thanks for sharing. I will make it again.

      These were delicious. I think I overcooked them a bit, not being an experienced shrimp cooker (this was my first try), plus I used already peeled and deveined shrimp so that may have contributed to the doneness. I served them at my Spanish-themed book club discussion, and they were gobbled up in no time. I will definitely try them again. Thank you, Irmgard, for posting such a great recipe!

      My family loved this one. I only used 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes and 1 tsp of the paprika. This was delicious, thanks so much for sharing.

      I made this for my New Years Eve Tapas Party and it was a big hit! I used peeled shrimp to make it easier for everyone at the party and I increased the pepper a bit.

      Love the full fresh flavor of this quick and easy recipe. The only change I made was to use smoked paprika! Thanks Irmgard!

      These are spectacular! We really enjoyed them Irmgard. I am going to increase the hot pepper and use frozen, raw shrimp with the tails on so no one will have to peel them. Definitely serve at room temperature so that the flavours really meld!
