Residents of Sao Paulo call themselves Paulistas and this simple
shrimp dish is a regional favorite. Traditionally, the shrimp are
cooked in their shells; however, we've removed them to make for
easier eating.

Active time: 15 min
Total: 35 min
Servings: 6

2 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 Tbsp lime juice
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro, divided
8 cloves garlic, minced, divided
1/2 tsp kosher salt, divided
1/2 tsp crushed red pepper, divided
2 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil

1. Place shrimp in a medium nonreactive bowl and toss with lime
juice, 1/4 cup cilantro, half the garlic, 1/4 teaspoon salt and
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper. Cover and let marinate in the
refrigerator for 20 minutes.

2. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the
shrimp, marinade and remaining garlic; cook until the shrimp
are just cooked through, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat;
