Quantity Ingredient
1 Large shrimp
1/2 Fresh parsley
2 – 3 Garlic cloves
1 Shallot
1/2 Butter
1 Egg

Instructions:

  1. Prepare Herb Butter Mixture:

    • Begin by chopping the fresh parsley and combine it with minced garlic, finely chopped shallot, and butter (ensure the butter is not melted).
    • Blend the ingredients well to form a flavorful herb butter mixture. Refrigerate this mixture for at least 2 hours to let the flavors meld together.
  2. Preheat Skillet:

    • Clean and butterfly the shrimp, ensuring they are deveined and ready for cooking.
    • Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a small amount of oil to prevent sticking.
  3. Cook the Shrimp:

    • Dip each shrimp into beaten egg, coating it evenly.
    • Carefully fry the shrimp in the skillet for about 2 minutes on each side, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. It’s crucial not to overcook them; work in batches if necessary.
  4. Prepare for Broiling:

    • Preheat your oven’s broiler function.
    • Arrange the cooked shrimp in an oven-proof casserole dish, ensuring they are in a single layer for even cooking.
  5. Add Butter Mixture:

    • Melt the herb butter mixture prepared earlier and pour it generously over the shrimp, ensuring each piece is coated with the flavorful blend.
  6. Broil the Shrimp:

    • Place the casserole dish with the shrimp under the broiler for about 2 minutes or until they are sizzling hot and slightly charred on top. Keep a close eye on them to prevent burning.
  7. Serve and Enjoy:

    • Once done, remove the French Shrimp from the oven and let them cool slightly.
    • Garnish with additional fresh parsley if desired, and serve hot as a delightful appetizer or main course.

Tips:

  • For added flavor, you can sprinkle some freshly squeezed lemon juice over the shrimp just before serving.
  • Ensure the shrimp are not overcrowded in the skillet or casserole dish to promote even cooking and a beautiful presentation.
  • Adjust the amount of garlic and shallot according to your taste preferences for a personalized touch to this classic French dish.
