Ingredients

2 lb.
jumbo Gulf shrimp
1 1/2 Tbsp.
Creole seasoning
3 Tbsp.
extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 cup
extra-virgin olive oil
5
clove garlic, finely chopped
1
small shallot, finely chopped
1/2 cup
dry sherry
2
roasted red piquillo peppers, finely chopped
1 tsp.
sugar
1/4 tsp.
crushed red pepper
1/2 tsp.
Kosher salt
2 cups

Directions

1. Step 1Pat shrimp dry with paper towels. In large bowl, toss shrimp with Creole seasoning; refrigerate.
2. Step 2In 2-quart saucepan, heat 1 tablespoon oil on medium-low. Add garlic and shallot; cook 2 to 3 minutes or until shallot starts to soften, stirring frequently. Add sherry, piquillo peppers, sugar, red pepper, and kosher salt. Heat to boiling on high. Boil 3 minutes or until reduced by half. Add stock and 1/2 cup oil. Simmer 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3. Step 3Meanwhile, in 12-inch cast-iron skillet, heat remaining 2 tablespoon oil on medium-high until hot. Arrange half of shrimp in single layer. Cook 2 to 3 minutes or until deep golden brown and just cooked through, turning over once. Transfer to bowl. Repeat with remaining shrimp. Remove skillet from heat. Return reserved shrimp to skillet; add sauce (be careful, it will spatter). Stir to coat. Garnish with parsley; serve with bread.
