Garlic Confit

Shrimp Mixture

Serving

Method

Garlic Confit

  1. 1

    Prepare Garlic Confit

    In a small saucepan, combine the garlic cloves and olive oil. Add the fresh thyme sprigs and bring to a very gentle simmer over low heat. Cook for about 30-40 minutes until the garlic is tender and lightly golden. Remove from heat and let cool, then transfer to a jar and store in the oil.

Shrimp Mixture

  1. 2

    Prepare the Shrimp

    While the garlic confit is cooling, rinse the shrimp under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. In a large skillet, add the garlic confit (with the oil) over medium heat. Once hot, add the shrimp, preserved lemon (finely chopped), white wine, salt, and black pepper.

  2. 3

    Cook the Shrimp

    Sauté the shrimp for about 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are pink and opaque. Adjust seasoning if necessary.

Serving

  1. 4

    Serve

    To serve, place the cooked shrimp mixture on a serving platter and drizzle with a little extra garlic confit oil if desired. Serve with warm barbari bread for dipping.
