  1. Combine tomatillos, chiles, 4 garlic cloves, water, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a 4-quart saucepan and simmer, covered, stirring occasionally, until tomatillos are tender, 10 to 12 minutes. (Chiles will not be tender.)

  5. Heat butter in a deep 12-inch heavy skillet over moderate heat until foam subsides, then add remaining 4 garlic cloves, 2 cups tomatillo sauce, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and bring to a simmer.
  6. Add shrimp and simmer, stirring, 2 minutes. Add remaining sauce and simmer, stirring, until shrimp are just cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes.
