    Broiled Shrimp in Garlic Butter


    Source of Recipe


    Internet

    List of Ingredients




    1 pound medium shrimp (26-30 count)
    1/4 cup butter
    2 tablespoons olive oil
    4 large garlic cloves, finely chopped
    1/8 teaspoon red pepper flakes
    salt and white pepper, to taste
    3 to 4 tablespoons breadcrumbs
    2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
    lemon wedges

    Recipe



    Shell and devein the shrimp leaving the tails intact. Rinse in cold water, drain well and pat dry with paper towels.

    Heat the butter and olive oil over low heat in a large oven-proof braising pan, or skillet with a lid. Add the chopped garlic and red pepper flakes and cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 to 5 minutes, or until the garlic is tender. Do not let the garlic brown. Remove the pan from the heat. Sprinkle the shrimp with salt and white pepper and transfer them to the pan of butter and garlic. Toss the shrimp to coat with the mixture and cover the pan with a lid. Let stand for 10 to 15 minutes to allow the flavors to blend.

    After 10 to 15 minutes, toss the shrimp again and spread them out in a single layer in the pan. Sprinkle the breadcrumbs over the shrimp and place the pan about 8 inches under the oven-broiler. Broil for 3 to 5 minutes, until the breadcrumbs are golden and the shrimp is cooked through. Remove the pan from the oven and sprinkle the shrimp with chopped parsley. Transfer the shrimp with the pan juices to a serving platter or individual plates. Garnish with lemon wedges. Makes 4 servings.
