  2. Leave tails on.
  3. Place shrimp in individual service casserole dishes or in a shallow baking pan, tails up and cut side down.

  7. Add the garlic, lemon juice, parsley, salt, and pepper.
  8. Pour the butter sauce over the shrimp.

  10. Broil until the tops are lightly browned.

  12. Transfer the shrimp to the oven above the broiler for a few minutes to finish cooking.
  13. NOTE:
  14. All butter may be used, instead of a mixture of butter and oil.
  15. Or, if you are using a good-quality olive oil, use more oil and less butter or all olive oil.
  16. Serve this dish with rice or with plenty of bread to soak up the flavorful butter.
