Steps:

• First, peel and devein your shrimp, leaving the tails on. Reserve the peels for later, they will be used in the stock.
• Prepare the Marinade: Combine lemon juice, extra virgin olive oil, creole seasoning blend, white wine, fresh garlic paste in a mixing bowl. Finish the marinade with salt and fresh cracked black pepper to taste. Whisk well to combine.
• Add Shrimp to the marinade, toss well to coat. Set aside while preparing the sauce.
• Prepare the Sauce: Add olive oil to the pan, saute the onion for 1.5 minutes over medium high heat. Next, add garlic paste, stirring frequently for about 45 seconds. Add white wine, Worchtershire Sauce,and a quartered lemon. Turn your burner to low and add shrimp peels.
• Stir everything around and add creole seasoning blend, ground black pepper, old bay seasoning, and bay leaf. Stir and let simmer for 6-8 minutes. Finally, add white wine, and let simmer for 2 more minutes. Turn off burner, and begin prepping shrimp for grill.
• Thread about 5 shrimp on flat skewers, leaving space between each so that they grill and do not steam.
• Strain sauce into a bowl and press out remaining juices with spatula. Pour the strained sauce back into the pan and set aside.
• Toast slices of french bread over a grill preheated to 350°. Grill for about 30 seconds per side until toasted.
• Place your shrimp directly on the grids, of a grill set up for direct 350° heat. Grill them for 2-2.5 minutes on the first side and turn them over. Grill for 2 additional minutes on second side and remove the shrimp skewers to a pan or platter.
• Bring sauce back to a simmmer, and add fresh chopped parsley. Stir and begin whisking in several pieces of cold diced butter at a time. Add the remainder of butter pieces and whisk until half way melted. Remove pan from heat and whisk until completely melted.
• Add grilled shrimp to the sauce pan and stir everything together. Place french bread on plate, and serve shrimp over the slices of bread. Pour the sauce over the top of the shrimp and French bread, and enjoy!

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil, shallot and garlic. Cook, stirring often with a wooden spoon, until the shallots are soft and fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add the lemon slices and cook until they begin to brown, about 1 minute longer, then stir in the shrimp, paprika, thyme, black pepper and salt. Add the Worcestershire sauce and 3 tablespoons water and bring the liquid to a simmer.
• Cook, stirring often, until the shrimp are beginning to turn pink, about 2 minutes. Add the butter cubes and swirl the pan to combine. Allow the sauce to simmer until the shrimp are pink and just opaque all the way through, another 3 to 4 minutes. Serve with lots of napkins and some crusty bread for sopping up the sauce.

Steps:

• Snip shells of shrimp with scissors down middle of back, leaving tail and first segment of shell intact. Make an incision along length of back where shells are cut and devein, leaving shells in place. (Shells will prevent shrimp from becoming tough on outside when grilled.) Toss shrimp with oil, garlic, and 1/2 teaspoon salt and marinate at cool room temperature 15 minutes.
• While shrimp marinate, prepare grill for cooking. If using a charcoal grill, open vents on bottom of grill, then light charcoal. Charcoal fire is medium-hot when you can hold your hand 5 inches above rack for 3 to 4 seconds. If using a gas grill, preheat burners on high, covered, 10 minutes, then reduce heat to moderately high.
• Heat butter, chili powder, pepper, Worcestershire sauce, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt in a small heavy saucepan over moderately low heat, stirring, until butter is melted, then remove from heat and stir in lemon juice.
• Thread 4 or 5 shrimp onto each skewer and grill, covered only if using a gas grill, turning over once, until just cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes total. Push shrimp off skewers into a bowl, then pour butter mixture over them and toss to combine well.

Pour this mixture over the shrimp so that the shrimp are completely submerged.
• Bake in the preheated oven until shrimp are pink, 15 to 20 minutes.

NEW ORLEANS-STYLE BARBEQUED SHRIMP

Steps:

• Cook's Note: You can buy large, frozen tiger shrimp that have been deveined but are still in the shell. If you use these, thaw them according to the package directions. If using fresh shrimp, you can ask the person at the fish counter to devein them for you in the shell. You can also do this yourself: Using kitchen shears, cut the shell along the vein and pull the vein out with your fingers. Or, you can just skip the deveining process. The vein won't hurt you.
• Combine 3 tablespoons of the chili powder and 1 tablespoon of the salt in a small bowl. Rub the shrimp with this mixture, making sure you rub some into the open cut where the shrimp as been deveined (if applicable) to season the shrimp inside the shell. Place the shrimp in a shallow, non-reactive pan, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate while you make the sauce.
• In a saucepan set over medium-high heat, melt the butter. Add the onion and garlic and cook for 3 to 5 minutes, until soft, but not browned. Add the ketchup, oil, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, lemon, lemon juice, bay leaves, oregano, thyme, and cayenne, as well as the remaining 2 tablespoons chili powder and 2 teaspoons salt. Stir to mix. Reduce the heat to a simmer, and cook, covered, stirring occasionally, for about 20 minutes, or until thick. Remove from the heat, uncover, and cool to room temperature. Remove and discard the lemon slices and bay leaves. Pour 1 1/2 cups of the sauce over the shrimp. Toss to coat well. Cover and refrigerate the shrimp for 1 to 2 hours. Cover and refrigerate the remaining sauce separately and save for dipping.
• Prepare a charcoal fire or preheat a gas grill for direct grilling over high heat.
• While the grill is heating, reheat the remaining sauce in a small, covered saucepan over very low heat, it will only take a few minutes. Watch the sauce carefully so that it doesn't burn.
• Remove the shrimp from the pan and discard the marinade. Grill the shrimp for 2 to 3 minutes per side, until the shells are orangey-pink. To test for doneness, take a shrimp off the grill, remove the shell and cut the shrimp in half: The flesh should be white and firm throughout.
• Serve with the warm sauce for dipping, and a large bowl for the shells.
