Spicy Garlic Shrimp

8 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

2 dozen peeled, de-veined tail-on shrimp

8 cloves of garlic

1 teaspoon red pepper flakes

¼ cup chopped peanuts

¼ parsley

½ a lemon

1 baguette

Slice the baguette on a diagonal and toast in the oven until lightly golden brown. In a large pan heat the olive oil to medium high. Rinse the shrimp and pat them dry with a paper towel. Slice the garlic. Add the shrimp, garlic, nuts, and red pepper flakes to the hot oil. Cook the shrimp for about two minutes on each side until pink. There is nothing worse than tough shrimp so don’t over do it. Keep an eye on the garlic so it does not burn. Once the shrimp is cooked move everything to a serving platter and top with parsley and a squeeze of lemon juice. Serve with the bread to soak up the juices.
