List of Ingredients
:
1 lb Butter
1/2 cup Lemon juice
2 tsp Fresh basil, chopped
2 tsp Cayenne pepper
2 tsp Fresh oregano, chopped
5 Garlic cloves, minced
1 Bay leaf, crumbled
1/2 cup Black pepper, finely ground
Salt
4 lb Large raw shrimp in shells
The shrimp should be of a size to number 30 to 35 per pound. Melt the butter in a large deep-sided frying pan or iron skillet over low heat. When melted, raise the heat, and add the remaining ingredients except the shrimp. Cook, stirring often, until browned to a rich mahogany color, about 10 minutes. Add the shrimp, stirring and turning to coat well with the seasoned butter. Cook until the shrimp have turned a rich deep pink, about 10 minutes. Serve the shrimp in their shells, peeling them at the table
