Recipe Introduction


I am giving this the title they give it in the book, in spite of my pet peeve about the phrase �shrimp scampi�. It�s like saying �chicken poultry�. But this is good stuff! It is just the most simple, elegant, delicious scampi! Buy the best shrimp you can find! You won�t be sorry! Serve with plenty of good bread to mop with and pasta or rice.


List of Ingredients




6 T. sweet butter, at room temperature
� c. olive oil
1 T. minced garlic
1 T. minced shallots
2 T. snipped fresh chives
Salt and pepper, to taste
� t. paprika
2 lb. large shrimp, peeled and deveined


Recipe



Preheat the broiler.

Combine the first 7 ingredients. Toss the shrimp in the mixture until thoroughly coated.

Broil the shrimp as close as possible to the flame for 2 minutes on each side. Serve immediately.

Serves 4.
