Ingredients


Preparation

In a sauce pan on Medium heat add water and butter. Allow the butter to completely melt ( about 2 minutes). Add Basil, Cayenne Pepper, Salt, Pepper, and Paprika. Cook on Medium heat for about 2-3 minutes stirring slowly so that the butter is infused with the flavors. Lower the heat to Low.

Add Shrimp and stir slowly until shrimp turns a nice coral color and the tails curl.

(3 Minutes with Extra Large Shrimp max 4-5 Minutes)

Be careful not to over cook the shrimp or it will become rubbery.
