Garlic Prawns: A Delicious and Gluten-Free Spanish Classic 🇪🇸🦐

Tapas: Sautéed prawns with garlic, Spain

Gambas al ajillo , or prawns with garlic and sweet chili , are a classic Spanish . Served piping hot in a terracotta pan, they release a delicious aroma of golden garlic and olive oil , enhanced by a touch of sweet chili. I have wonderful memories of them because, with my future husband, we discovered them during our first romantic weekend getaway to Spain. This naturally gluten-free is prepared in just a few minutes and is ideally accompanied by a small fresh salad and/or a glass of white wine 😇. Originating from Andalusia, this recipe is perfect for an aperitif or a light dinner with Iberian flavors.
