This quick and easy tapa brings Mediterranean flavor and bright colors to your table. Garlic and sun-dried tomatoes are sautéed together, then mixed with peeled shrimp and sprinkled with fresh basil. Serve with rustic bread. This hearty dish is perfect for sharing with friends and family or reheated the next day as leftovers.

3 cloves garlic
1/4 cup fresh basil
4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes in oil
