Ingredients:
Instructions:
- In a medium bowl, combine the fish sauce and white wine.
- Add the minced garlic to the mixture.
- Place the shrimp in the bowl and ensure they are well coated with the marinade.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 15-20 minutes. This step allows the shrimp to soak up the flavors.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the shrimp along with the marinade to the skillet.
- Cook the shrimp for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they turn pink and are cooked through. Be careful not to overcook the shrimp as they can become tough and rubbery.
- Once the shrimp are cooked, sprinkle the chopped fresh parsley over them.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve the garlic and white wine shrimp hot.
- This dish pairs beautifully with a side of crusty bread, over pasta, or alongside a fresh salad.
Tips:
- Make sure to use fresh shrimp for the best flavor and texture. If using frozen shrimp, thaw them completely before cooking.
- Don't overcook the shrimp; they should be pink and opaque when done. Overcooking can make them tough and rubbery.
- Feel free to adjust the amount of garlic to suit your taste. More garlic will give the dish a stronger flavor.
- Fresh parsley adds a burst of color and freshness. If you don't have parsley, you can substitute with other fresh herbs like cilantro or basil.
- Pair this dish with a glass of the same white wine used in the recipe to enhance the dining experience.
- Serve the shrimp over a bed of pasta or rice to make it a heartier meal.
