3 garlic cloves, minced
1 pound medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
½ tsp dried marjoram
½ tsp crushed red pepper flakes

Whisk together the 3 tablespoons olive oil, lemon juice, wine and garlic in a medium bowl. Toss the shrimp in the mixture. Cover and let stand in the refrigerator for 20-30 minutes.
In a large nonstick skillet, heat the remaining olive oil over a high heat. Remove the shrimp from the marinade with a slotted spoon and add to the skillet.
Cook for about 3 minutes, turning, or until bright pink. Remove the shrimp from the skillet. Add the marinade, marjoram and red pepper flakes. Reduce heat to medium and simmer for about 5 minutes. Add the shrimp back to the skillet, heat through and toss with the parsley. Serve immediately.
