Garlic Shrimp with Chilies

These are SO good - either as an appetizer piping hot with fresh bread to dip in the oil, as a main meal over rice or chilled and served over a mixed green salad. This recipe normally only serves the two of us, but we REALLY like these shrimp. It should serve four as an appetizer.
