Heat the oven to 350 degrees F. Place the bread on a rimmed baking sheet in the oven to warm and crisp while you prepare the shrimp.

4
Season with salt and pepper.
5
Stir and simmer for about 5 minutes to marry and blend the flavors, being very careful not to let the garlic brown.
6
Add the shrimp and increase the heat to medium.
7
Cook, turning the shrimp with tongs, until all the shrimp begin to turn pink, about 3 minutes.
8
Remove the skillet from the heat and cover.

Let the shrimp remain in the sauce for an additional 5 minutes or so to absorb the flavors and to finish cooking.

Discard the bay leaf.
