Almost Shrimp Paesano  
Shrimp  
1
1
egg  
cup milk  
Salt and pepper to taste  
1
pound extra−large shrimp, peeled  
and deveined, tails left on  
/2 cup all−purpose flour  
1
Vegetable oil  
In a shallow bowl, combine eggs, milk, salt and pepper. Dip shrimp in mixture, then dip in flour lightly.  
Heat oil in a sauté pan until hot, then add shrimp 4 to 6 at a time, making sure shrimp have plenty of  
room to cook. (It's important that shrimp are not near each other or touch.) Brown them on one side,  
then turn and brown them on the other. Cook until done, or put on a baking sheet in a preheated 350  
degrees F oven to finish cooking. Meanwhile, prepare sauce.  
Sauce  
1
1/2 cups (3 sticks) cold butter,  
cut into 1−inch pieces  
Juice of 1 medium lemon  
1
2
clove garlic, minced  
tablespoons minced fresh parsley  
In a heavy saucepan, combine butter, lemon juice and garlic. Put over medium−low heat and whisk  
mixture constantly until the butter is just melted and thickened. Stir in parsley, then remove from heat.  
Pool sauce on plate, then top with cooked shrimp. (Leftover sauce is also good with grilled or broiled  
seafood.)  
Serves 3 to 4.
