    List of Ingredients




    2 pounds medium shrimp in their shells
    1 tablespoon Essence, recipe follows
    1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
    1 tablespoon vegetable oil
    1 cup heavy cream
    1/4 cup Barbecue Sauce Base, recipe follows
    2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces
    1 recipe Rosemary Biscuits, recipe follows

    Recipe



    Peel and devein the shrimp, leaving their tails attached. Reserve the shells, if desired, to make the shrimp stock for the Barbeque Sauce Base. Season the shrimp with the Essence and black pepper, tossing to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate while you make the sauce base and biscuits.
    Heat the oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add the seasoned shrimp and cook, stirring, until they begin to turn pink, about 2 minutes. Add the cream and Barbecue Sauce Base, reduce the heat to medium high, and simmer, stirring, until reduced by half, about 3 minutes. Transfer the shrimp to a platter with tongs. Over medium low heat, gradually whisk the butter into the sauce. Remove from the heat.

    Place 2 or 3 biscuits on each plate. Divide the shrimp among the biscuits, and top each serving with the sauce. Serve immediately.
