We like to serve this main with couscous, rice, or grilled bread to sop up all of the shrimp's intensely flavored cooking liquid.
Ingredients
- 2 red serrano or Fresno chiles, with seeds, halved lengthwise
- 6 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
- 2 bay leaves
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 1 1/2 pounds large shrimp, peeled, deveined
- 1 lemon, cut into wedges
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450 °F. Heat chiles, garlic, bay leaves, and oil in a small saucepan over medium heat until just beginning to sizzle, about 2 minutes. Remove chile oil from heat.
- Toss shrimp and chile oil in a 3-quart baking dish; roast, turning halfway through, until shrimp are cooked through, 8 –10 minutes.
