July 4, 2020
: 2

Ingredients
- 2/3 to 3/4 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined (scallops are great, too)
- 1 pint ripe cherry tomatoes, halved
- 2-4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
- 3 cloves of garlic, finely chopped
- Himalayan salt crystal and freshly ground black pepper
- Small handful roughly chopped parsley
Directions
- Step 1 Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a sauté pan over low heat. Add the garlic and sauté for 15 seconds. Add the tomatoes, turn up the heat to medium-high and sauté, stirring frequently, until they have a soft consistency, about 7 minutes, or until they have the taste and look you like (trust your instincts!). You can lower the heat if the tomatoes begin to stick. Add a little salt and pepper if you would like.
- Step 2 Heat a large non-stick sauté pan with 1-2 tablespoons olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp in a single layer and cook about 1-2 minutes each side. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat.
- Step 3 To serve: divide the shrimp between two plates and garnish with parsley or basil. Enjoy!
