Ingredients
- 3/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- Juice of 2 lemons
- 1/2 cup dry white wine
- 6 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped
- 2 teaspoons paprika
- Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
- 4 pounds colossal shrimp, tail-on, deveined, rinsed, and dried
- 3/4 cup Clarified Butter
- 1 cup fresh breadcrumbs
- Lemon wedges, for serving
Directions
-
In a large, nonreactive bowl, mix together olive oil, lemon juice, wine, garlic, parsley, and paprika; season with salt and pepper. Add shrimp and toss to coat. Cover and transfer to refrigerator. Let marinate for 30 minutes.
-
Remove shrimp from marinade and transfer to a shallow baking dish. Transfer remaining marinade to a medium saucepan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Remove from heat; let cool slightly. Pour over shrimp.
-
Preheat broiler.
-
Spoon 1/2 teaspoon butter over each shrimp and sprinkle with breadcrumbs. Broil until shrimp are opaque, 4 to 6 minutes. Serve immediately with lemon wedges.
How much do you reduce the marinade by?
The Verdit Is In: this is a great recipe! This is a very light (considering the butter) yet filling dinner that was perfect for a Christmas Eve dinner along with the recommended River Salad.
Enjoy!!
Broil on high or low?
