Oh-la-la... confit sounds quite fancy shmancy doesn't it? Surprise! It's actually an incredibly simple way to prepare fish or shrimp that jam-packs it with flavor (also known as poached)! The best part? It's even BETTER with O-Live olive oil! Here's our new favorite go-to Fall recipe brought to us by @AboutToSprout.

Olive Oil Poached Shrimp

Ingredients:

• 2-3 cups O-live & Co. Everyday Olive Oil, enough to cover the shrimp 
• 18-24 large shrimp, peeled & raw 
• Few springs of any hardy herb; fresh thyme, rosemary 
• Salt & Pepper

Directions:

1. Heat a large saucepan over medium heat and add O-Live olive oil and herbs.
2. Sprinkle peeled shrimp with salt and pepper.
3. In batches, add shrimp to the olive oil and poach until the shrimp are opaque in the center (about 5 minutes).
4. If you are using less olive oil and it doesn’t cover the shrimp entirely you can baste the shrimp with the olive oil.
5. With a large spoon, spoon the olive oil over the shrimp until the shrimp turns opaque.
