Recipe Instructions:

  1. In a large skillet, melt 1 stick of butter over high heat.
  2. When the butter is almost melted, add the chopped green onions, salt, minced garlic, ground white pepper, black pepper, dried sweet basil leaves, dried thyme leaves, and dried oregano leaves. Stir well to combine.
  3. Add the medium shrimp to the skillet and sauté them just until they turn pink, about 1 minute. Instead of stirring, gently shake the pan in a back-and-forth motion to evenly cook the shrimp.
  4. Introduce the sliced mushrooms and 1/4 cup of chicken stock to the skillet. Then, add the remaining 4 tablespoons of butter in chunks. Continue cooking, shaking the pan to incorporate the ingredients.
  5. Before the butter chunks are completely melted, sprinkle in the chopped fresh parsley. Pour in the remaining 2 tablespoons of chicken stock. Continue cooking and shaking the pan until all the ingredients are thoroughly mixed, and the butter sauce reaches the desired consistency, akin to cream.
  6. Serve the Shrimp Diane immediately in bowls, ensuring to include plenty of French bread on the side for dipping or serve over a bed of pasta or rice for a fulfilling meal.

Indulge in the tantalizing flavors of Shrimp Diane, crafted with love and attention to detail, for an unforgettable dining experience with your loved one.
