    Shrimp in Garlic Sauce (Spanish Style)

    Published: Jan 5, 2019 · This post may contain affiliate links · Leave a Comment

    If you love seafood, I know you love shrimp. It's so versatile so you can expect to have it in so many different ways. It is also really fast to cook, so whipping up a shrimp dish in a pinch is the way to go. Shrimp in garlic sauce is one of my favorite ways to have shrimp prepared. It's always on the menu of a Portuguese or Spanish (Spain) restaurant but now you can have it at home.
