Напрямки

Shell and devein the shrimp. Neatly eut each shrimp into 3 or 4 pieces. Drain well. Place the olive oil, garlic, and hot red pepper flakes in a small sauté pan. Cook over medium-low heat for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the shrimp and parsley, raise the heat to high, and sauté for 1 to 2 minutes, or until shrimp is just cooked through. Remember the shrimp will continue to cook from the heat retained in the pan. Season with salt and pepper. Meanwhile, toast the bread on both sides on the grill, under the broiler, or in the toaster. Rub one side of each slice of bread with the cut sides of the garlic cloves. Arrange the bread slices on a platter and spoon the shrimp and any juices over the bread slices. Serve immediately, garnished with lemon wedges.
