A favorite tapas dish, these Spanish shrimp are infused with the flavors of garlic, olive oil, and chile peppers. Easy and authentic! Use as many chile peppers as you can take.

I made this for a catering job for 60 servings. It was a very big hit. I had to adjust the recipe when I input for 60 servings of course it was the spices. But it was soo good. I served with a Green Goddess dressing dipping sauce which was served in individual container. Read More
