Spicy Shrimp With Brandy And Fresh Tomatoes

Spicy Shrimp With Brandy And Fresh Tomatoes


1. Peel the tomatoes, remove the seeds and cut into narrow strips.

2. Put the garlic and olive oil in a skillet large enough to accommodate the shrimp in a single layer and place it over high heat.

3. Saute the garlic till it begins to sizzle. Add the red pepper flakes and the shrimp and saute very briefly, till both sides of the shrimp begin to change color.

4. Add the brandy and flame it, or let it cook for about 10 seconds to evaporate the alcohol.

5. Add the tomatoes and season with salt. Cook, stirring, till the shrimp are done, 2-3 minutes.

6. Do not overcook the shrimp or they will become tough.

7. Serve at once.
