Shrimp With Parsley-Garlic Butter

Features:
    Cuisine:

    I also used frozen shrimp. It was very good. I was running short on time so I melted butter with all ingredients except the shrimp. Simmered for about 5 minutes then add the shrimp and simmered for another 5 minutes. I made this along with a small piece of chicken I had. Made for 2012 Zaar Cookbook Tag Game

    Shrimp With Parsley-Garlic Butter, This comes from the Williams-Sonoma Bride & Groom cookbook The recipe didn’t state regular or unsalted butter, so used regular and found it too salty, but my husband loved it So, if you love salty dishes, I suggest regular butter, but if you prefer less salt in your dishes, use unsalted butter Butter can be prepared in advance, it can be kept in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and in the freezer for 1 month Also, recipe calls for raw shrimp, but used flash-frozen, pre-cooked & de-shelled shrimp and had no problems I hope you enjoy , I also used frozen shrimp It was very good I was running short on time so I melted butter with all ingredients except the shrimp Simmered for about 5 minutes then add the shrimp and simmered for another 5 minutes I made this along with a small piece of chicken I had Made for 2012 Zaar Cookbook Tag Game

Don't Cut All the Way Through the Shrimp; Cut Just Enough to Open It or Butterfly It. Lift Any Dark Vein With the Tip of the Knife and Pull Out, and Press Down on the Opened Shrimp to Flatten It Without Seperating the Halves. Rinse the Shrimp Under Cold Water and Pat Dry.
