  • 2 Tbsp of Butter, one coated in flour
  • Salt and Pepper
  • Fresh Chopped Parsley

Preparation

    1) Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Clean and prep all the shrimp (watch video to see how to properly do this) then toss with a little olive oil, a squeeze of lemon and a good pinch of salt, set aside.

    2) In a large bowl, stir together all the ingredients for the filling (stir the crabmeat in last to keep it from over-mixing) then stuff each shrimp (watch video to see how this is done since it's a bit difficult to explain in writing) once they are all done, drizzle with a tad of butter then bake for 15-20 minutes and in the meantime, make the sauce.

    3) In a saucepan, add the oil and garlic, saute for a minute, add the wine, allow that to reduce by half, then add the shrimp stock and juice of 1/2 lemon along with a healthy pimch of salt, reduce by half. Add the butter and parsley, cook until thickened then stir in the parsley and serve with the shrimp.
