    List of Ingredients




    1 and 3/4 pounds medium shrimp with heads and shells*
    6 tablespoons shrimp stock, in all
    3/8 pound (1 and 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, in all
    1/4 cup very finely chopped green onions
    1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
    2 and 1/4 teaspoons Prudhomme's Seafood Magic
    1/2 pound mushrooms, sliced into 1/4-inch-thick pieces
    3 tablespoons very finely chopped parsley leaves
    French bread, pasta or hot cooked rice

    *If shrimp with heads are not available, buy 1 pound of shrimp without heads (with shells, if possible, for making stock)

    Rinse and peel the shrimp; refrigerate until needed. Use shells and heads to make shrimp stock.

    In a large skillet melt 1 stick of butter over high heat. When almost melted, add the green onions, garlic and the Seafood Magic; stir well. Add the shrimp and saute just until they turn pink, about 1 minute, shaking the pan (versus stirring) in a back and forth motion.**

    Add the mushrooms and 4 tablespoons of the stock; then add the remaining 1/2 stick butter in chunks and continue to shake the pan. Before the butter chunks are completely melted, add the parsely, then the remaining 2 tablespoons stock; continue cooking and shaking the pan until all ingredients are mixed thoroughly and butter sauce is the consistency of cream.

    Serve immediately in a bowl with lots of French bread on the side, or serve over pasta or rice.
