Ingredients
Method
Techniques
- 45 ml extra virgin olive oil
Heat a large fry pan over medium heat and add the extra virgin olive oil.
- 450 g raw jumbo shrimp
Lay the shrimp on paper towels in a single layer and pat completely dry.
- sea salt
- freshly cracked black pepper
Season the shrimp with sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper on one side only.
Once the oil is hot, add the shrimp in a single layer, evenly spaced. Cook about 1 minute per side until just cooked through.
After about 2 minutes total, remove the shrimp from the pan and set aside. Do not overcook or the texture turns tough.
- 8 cloves garlic
In the same pan at the same heat, add the chopped garlic and stir continuously for about 30 seconds until fragrant, without browning it.
- 4 g all purpose flour
Add the all purpose flour and stir continuously for 1 minute to cook off the raw flavor.
- 1 g dried oregano
- ½ g dried thyme
- ¼ tsp crushed red pepper
Add the dried oregano, dried thyme and crushed red pepper, and stir for 2 to 3 minutes until a paste-like texture forms and the alcohol has cooked off.
- 120 ml milk
Add the room-temperature milk. Chilled milk can curdle.
- 120 ml vegetable broth
Add the vegetable broth and stir gently for about 5 minutes until a slightly creamy sauce forms.
Season with sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper and mix.
